In order to save the life of her companion, the alien figlet, Spacebread the wondercat must find the Flame-that-is-not-a-flame on the fabled planet Osghan.
I loved this book, and its predecessor, when I was in middle school--but I liked this one even better than the first. I remember checking it out of the library over and over again to re-read. But that was years ago. I'd very much like to get my hands on a copy when I have some free time, and see if it's still as wonderful and entertaining as I remember it. (And so that I can give a more specific review!)
