Publisher's Synopsis
The Weller family gave me permission to fling them into space to settle an "Uninhabited" planet. Since they arrived, they have met the Dragon Clan, the Others, and the Merpeople! the Dragons, are not the firebreathing scaley beasts of earth fantasy stories but intelligent beings. Rainbow and Sunset's son, Donzereli, is best friends with Ruby and Nolan. The Others are a race of people that only look like fierce "Yeti's" wearing their white fur-suits in the frigid south climate. No explanation is needed for the Merpeople. As a result of the last adventure, Ruby and Nolan are now Merpeople, permanently! Nolan is thrilled that he can't drown, but Ruby not so much. What young woman wants gills on her neck? Remember, in the last book, our adventurers settled down to accept their punishment for deciding to "visit" Bri and Tig's home under the sea. This time we will focus on the adult problems a little, but we won't forget that teens will be teens. Things are heating up between the Consortium and the New Earth. The dreaded Mr. Hendricks is his usual combatant self and front and center of the group of visitors arriving to preview the colonists' accomplishments. Hopefully, before it reaches the boiling point, all parties can come to an understanding before the Dragons close the wormhole forever! Just what will happen is up in the air. Pun intended! The youngsters are ignoring the adult problems. Donzereli asks permission to explore the continent across the ocean as a summer project. He had the support of Councilor Klethand, who was enthusiastic one day and the next, saying, "It's too dangerous!" Donzereli is not going to let anything stop him from a fun summer! He plans the trip and invites all the youngsters to go with him. Donzereli's perfect plan goes off without a hitch. Hang on, this could be a bumpy ride!
