Powells.com Staff Pick
A thrilling, page-turning sequel to Inkheart. Beloved characters return, new ones make their triumphant debut, and above all, a love of reading and books permeates each page of action-packed, cliff-hanging adventure.

In the hopes of saving Dustfinger from Basta, Farid and Meggie have entered Inkworld by reading themselves into the book Inkheart. Fenoglio who
entered Inkworld at the end of the first book, keeps trying to rewrite
parts of the story, but he's discovered that the story characters have a
life and will of their own. I loved Inkspell. Find out what happens in
this second installment of what I hope is a series ('cause I want more)!

Publisher Comments:
Although a year has passed, not a day goes by without Meggie thinking of Inkheart, the book whose characters came to life. But for Dustfinger, the fire-eater brought into being from words, the need to return to the tale has become desperate. When he finds Orpheus, a crooked storyteller with the magical ability to read him back, Dustfinger leaves behind his young apprentice Farid and plunges into the medieval world of the past. Distraught, Farid goes in search of Meggie. Before long, both are caught inside the book, too. And the story is threatening to evolve in ways neither of them could ever have imagined.
Like Inkheart, Inkspell features the special touches that transform Funke's novels into keepsakes. Each chapter begins with a surprisingly relevant literary excerpt and concludes with a charming line illustration by the author herself. And this, the second book in the trilogy, also includes a hand-drawn map of the Inkworld and, as a helpful reference for readers old and new, a "dictionary" of characters. Silvertongue, Fenoglio, Crookback, Firefox: The entire epic cast is described in detail.

This wonderful novel by one of the greatest magical writers Cornelia Funke, brings to life the world of Inkworld. Through her unforgetable cast of characters, vivid, magical places and a gripping storyline, Funke captures her readers forever. This is a must read for anyone who is a fan for not only a great read, but a magical tale that will transport you into the world of deliciously evil and spicy good characters.

Inkheart and Inkspell are my two favorite books. I have read them over and over again. I would recommend these books to anyone who likes, adventure, fantasy, and a great read. Usually I only love books about horses, but these two books blew away any book I have ever read. I can?t wait until the third one comes out. I will be waiting for it to arrive. If you haven't read these books you don't know what you are missing. They were FANTASTIC!
