Taranauts 8: The Mystery of the Dazl Corals

Roopa Pai

A Great War looming, four Tarasuns still to be rescued! Take flight with the Taranauts on their terrifying final adventure!

Mithya's eight worlds - Shyn, Lustr, Sparkl, Glo, Dazl, Shimr, Syntilla and Glytr - were plunged into darkness when the wicked Shaap Azur captured all its 32 stars. There was no hope until Zarpa, Tufan and Zvala - three bright and brave Taranauts with special gifts - set out to bring back light and cheer to Mithya.

Seven missions later, the Taranauts have reason to be proud - they have successfully returned 28 Tarasuns to Tara. But there is little time for celebrations - the Corals are still to be rescued, and Shaap Azur, determined not to go down without a fight, is preparing to unleash a terrible war.

Will the Taranauts survive the deadly dangers that await them in the Dil of Darkness? Will the giglworms return to the Forest of Gul Izta and make the Dazlkos well again? Can Emperaza Shoon Ya find a way to save the mithyakos from the bloody destruction of The Great Zamara?

Who will emerge victorious, and who will be banished to the Fiery Lands? Read and find out!
