This book actually lost me, it was one of the BEST i have ever read, yes including harry potter! plus just as good as her first in the trilogy, Inkheart. Her style of writing and use of imaginative words completely draws you into the book and story. It is the follow up for Inkheart where meggy and her father Mo, aka:Silvertongue, who can read people, creatures and objects out of books. Along with a mass of other characters, the two other main bein Dustfinger, a fire eater stuck in the wrong world, and Farid, Dustfingers follower, a teenage boy from Arabia, who has learnt all Dustfingers tricks whilst being also stuck in the wrong world.
Meggy has finally got her mother back from the Inkworld however she longs to go to the Inkworld and expericence it for herself, all the wonderful creatures and characters, places and adventures. The book completely envelopes you with its magic and reading about reading really makes you think that you are there with them. Each character has had so much thought put into them, even down to the tiny details of their past and future. I would reccomend this book to anyone really but maybe only 12+ age should read it as its quite a complex book and has some dark chapters. Its a big book of about 1500 pages, but you wizz through it quickly as you really cant put it down!
This book really opens your eyes to what an amazing author Cornelia Funke is, shes so imaginative its untrue! I really cant wait to read her last book in the trilogy, these books are the kind you buy and take such good care of, handing them down to your children thoroughly thumbed through! Even adults can get lost in this book, as more mature experiences are happening such as deaths and war.
Read this book and the others in the trilogy! you will be SPELLBOUND! i was happy, excited, scared and even cried during reading this book! 10/10 to you Mrs Funke!
