My new favorite book! Pepper goes in search of her parents after they are abducted by aliens. With the help of new friends from different planets and her close friend Parker by her side, Pepper travels to different worlds in search of the Starburst Juju that will help her find her missing parents. The journey opens her eyes to her own hidden talents. All the action and adventure kept me glued to the story, and I fell in love with the characters. The story has a lot of color, radiance, and a touch of whimsy. It is an excellent book that's filled with adventure, excitement and friendship and is definitely worth a read.

Pepper, a 15-year-old girl living in the aftermath of an economically collapsed earth, prepares to witness the annual abduction of humans by extraterrestrials. When its Pepper's parents who are taken, she learns that they are not the humble human schoolteachers she thought she knew, but two of the most powerful inventors throughout many worlds. Desperate to find them, Pepper will do anything to get them back, even if it means finding the otherworldly Starburst Juju, a stone that can free her parents from alien confinement.
