War is rising-again. But this time, it won't rise softly.Months after the rediscovery of the Motherloaf, the world of Crumbopolis basks in its warmest peace yet. Chip and his misfit crew have retired to a life of imperfect pastries and poetry readings... until the ovens tremble once more.Deep beneath the Muffin Mountains, a forgotten army stirs. The Scone Regent, last of the Stone Pan Bakers, has declared open war on softness, flavor deviation, and the right to crumble freely. With armies of hard-baked scone warriors, jam-powered siege mixers, and a prophecy etched in clotted cream, the Scone Wars have begun.Now, the Doughminion must reunite, traveling through cinnamon-ash deserts, melted-butter marshes, and the legendary Library of Unmeasured Ingredients. Alongside new allies and old grudges, they'll face the stickiest philosophical debate ever glazed: Should flavor serve order, or ferment freedom?One thing is certain.This time...there will be scone survivors.
