Rescued From Paradise is the fourth of four sequels to the science fiction novel Rocheworld by Robert L. Forward (Baen Books, New York, 1990). The other sequels are: Return to Rocheworld, Ocean Under the Ice and Marooned on Eden. In Rescued From Paradise , the children of the human explorers marooned decades ago on the Earth-like moon, "Eden," in the Barnard Star System, have to decide whether to stay on their idyllic birthplace with the friendly jelly-blob "flouwen" and the slow-moving tree-like "jollys", or to return to compete in the fast-paced combined human/robot civilization of the Solar System.
