<b>Return to the cosy and heart-warming world of <i>The Spellshop </i>in <i>The Enchanted Greenhouse </i>by <i>S</i>arah Beth Durst<i>, </i>a world brimming with singing flowers, honey cakes and honeyed love. </b><br/><br/>Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium.<br/><br/>This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. She's starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes and freshly baked honey cakes - at least until she's ready to sail home.<br/><br/>But Terlu can't return home and doesn't want to - the greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failing - causing the death of everything within them - Terlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again.<br/><br/>This time, though, she isn't alone.
