An evil spirit's plans take the gang far from Manitou Island, in order to save it...
TITLE: Escape From Manitou Island

GENRES: Fantasy, adventure, drama, mythology.

RATING: 13+

SUMMARY: Long ago, Manitou Island, the creation of Gitchi Manitou, was destroyed by an evil manitou out of revenge. Now Megissogwun, long thought dead, has returned and taken away the daughter of Manabozho. His threat is clear: Find Kabeyun, the West Wind, his old enemy and father of Manabozho, and bring him forward to fight again...or else little Turtle's fate will be sealed. Unfortunately...no one knows exactly where Kabeyun is...and he has shown no interest whatsoever in assisting either the Island or his family. Still, Charmian is desperate to try. She and an assortment of new and old friends from the Island set out to seek the Four Winds, to try to get back Turtle, and to defeat the ominous Pearl Feather, before he can destroy Manitou Island yet again...but they're going to have to journey very far from the Island, just to try to save it...and no one quite knows what lies beyond the boundaries of the Sky Tree...
