Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A goose just laid a letter. It's addressed to 'King Toby.' And it can't be opened by anyone else on Earth.Six months ago, four ordinary boys and one extraordinary girl slipped through a secret door and saved the hidden kingdom of Moondar. Now a magical summons has arrived - sealed in purple wax, delivered by one very confused farmyard goose - and the Doofuzz Dudes are needed again. This time the stakes couldn't be higher: baby Crown Princess Krystina has been snatched by the dreaded Dreezles, and an ancient prophecy says only the boy with the purple eyes can bring her home.So begins The Princess Detector, the second rip-roaring adventure in the Doofuzz Dudes series - an eighteen-book saga bursting with magic, mischief and heart.To rescue the princess, Toby, Huon, Tom, William and the fearless Anu must soar into another world on the backs of the Hawthorks - giant birds with glowing purple wings and night-flying goggles. Their quest will carry them across boiling rainbow seas, through the reeking Marshes of Salcazar to a fortune-hungry seer who lives at the bottom of a well, and up the freezing cliffs of Mount Dreadlock, where snapping Gerdlocks circle and a two-headed giant guards the gates.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Somebody has stolen the Spell Book.It turns up again - but by then Toby, Huon, Tom, William and Anu are on their way back to Moondar, where a magnificent new opera house has been built for Toby's Coronation, and nobody can explain who really paid for it.The answer is at Blabbel Industries in Salcazar, where Miss Bertha O'Squeal and Miss Bertha O'Heel - cousins, and identical in every hideous way - are having dreadful trouble with the talking water coolers. Their employer has invented something extraordinary. A Babbling Bottle answers any question you put to it. Ask, wait five minutes, hold it to your ear, and the truth comes back three times over. Soon everybody will want one. Soon nobody will need to think again.There is a way to stop the factory. It means surviving the Marshes of Carramel, finding the Moon Tree, and travelling ten thousand years into the past to a lizard lord who has never once been paid a compliment he didn't instantly believe.And it means persuading the greatest diva in Moondar to sing one particular note.
