The chase continues as Akielas tries to find the remnants of the dragon gods before the Specters do. Two of his friends have already fallen to the Specters and the chaos rages on. The burden grows on Akielas's shoulder and now he seeks help from a demigod who lives in a city in the sky. Akielas believes that only Caim, the demigod, can put an end to the Specters but the demigod is reluctant. While Akielas tries to coax Caim, his friends seek ancient power and lost magic.

Many stories are written for children. Many have overt or subtle messages. This tale, The Search For The Spaghetti Tree, is a tale I have told to my grandchildren and to many special needs children in my school.It has always stimulated their imaginations and led to a variety of interesting questions.Some of these children are now adults who have purcahsed the soft cover version of the story and are having their own children read it. Many laugh, not because it is silly, but because it demonstrates how courage and cunning can win over evil. Today, electronic media, television, mobile devices, and movies have taken away much of the imaginative play in our children. More books need to be read by them. More libraries need to be visited to help unlock the endless worlds of books. Hopefully this book will stimulate children in the excitement of imagination and to better understand principles of life.
