description
This dazzling, gripping sequel to the bestselling children's fantasy INKHEART follows curious, adventurous Meggie--the 12-year-old daughter of renowned bookbinder Mo--and beautiful, silent Resa, into a dangerous, compelling world trapped between the pages of Inkheart. Though the family has been reunited and living happily at Aunt Elinor's, Meggie's unquenchable thirst for stories about Inkheart causes her to read herself into the book, along with Farid, a boy seeking to rejoin the fire-eater, Dustfinger. There, they seek out Fengolio, the author, and discover that all is not as they expected. The voice of actor Brendan Fraser served as the inspiration for Mo, and the book is dedicated, in part, to him.


critical reviews
"In this spellbinding follow-up to INKHEART, Funke expertly mixes joy, pain, suspense and magic...There is much left to explore; readers will eagerly await the last in the planned trilogy." - (Publishers Weekly, 10/17/05)

"Readers will enjoy the many quotes at chapter headings from writers as diverse as Margaret Atwood, David Almond, Kat DiCamillo, Harper Lee, Pablo Neruda, Philip Pullman, J.K. Rowling, and T.H. White. In short, a booklover's book." - (Booklist, 10/1/05)

    "Love this series of books. I really missed being pulled into a story and not wanting to put the book down. This is a childrens book but it is just as good a read for adults."
