This is the te reo version of Aria and the Kūmara God, and the sequel to Te Kōkōrangi.


Noho mōrearea ana ngā rā ki tua: kua mauheretia a Te Kōkōrangi e te hoariri kino, e Ruatapu, waihoki, e matemate katoa ana ngā māra kūmara.
Me mātua whai a Ariā mā — tae atu ki a Kurī — i te ara uaua a Tāwhaki. Me piki ki ngā rangi, ka inoi ai i a Whānui kia āwhina mai.
Heoi anō, me kamakama tonu, i te mea kua tata te putanga o Matariki. Āe rānei ka tutuki i a rātou tēnei kakenga mutunga mai o te uaua . . .


The future is looking bleak: not only is the Astromancer held captive by the wicked Ruatapu, but also the kūmara crops are dying.
Ariā and her fellow apprentices — and Kurī — must repeat Tāwhaki’s great feat and climb up into the heavens to ask the star Whānui for help.
They have to act quickly because Matariki is drawing close, but the journey seems impossible . . .
