Although a year has passed, not a day goes by without Meggie thinking of the extraordinary events of Inkheart, and the story whose characters strode out of the pages and changed her life forever. But for Dustfinger, the fire-eater created from words, the need to return to the original tale has become desperate. When he finds a crooked storyteller with the magical ability to read him back into the story, Dustfinger leaves behind his young apprentice Farid and plunges back into the Inkworld of his past. Distraught, Farid goes in search of Meggie, and soon they find their way inside the book too. There they meet Fenoglio, the author of the original Inkheart, now living within his own story - but discover it much changed, and threatening to evolve in sinister ways he could never have imagined. But can Meggie, Farid and Fenoglio 'write' the wrongs of a charmed world about to be fought over by rival princes and rebels?

Enjoy the intriguing continuation of Meggie and Mo in the world that Meggie's mom - Resa- spent for 10 years after being read into another world. Imagine the voice of Meggie's mom when she finally is able to speak. Imagine how Meggie reads so that characters are read in and out of stories as well as herself. Picture fairies and the world of fantasy. The book is not all hearts. There is suspense. The book keeps you wanting more, even when you finish you can't wait to begin the next book.

Just what I was hoping for
Until September when the third book, Inkdeath, is released, Inkspell is most certainly Funk's diamond. The first book, Inkheart, although worth reading doesn't hold the same magic and excitement nessecary for an avid fantasy reader. I forced my way through Inkheart and was pleasantly surprised to find that the sequal would take place in the magical world that we learned about. This story will make you happy, worried, awed, excited, and it will probably even make you cry. I'm excited for Inkdeath to see what's instore for these characters!

disappointing sequel
After reading Inkheart, which I loved, I eagerly began reading the sequel, Inkspell. But alas, the second book did not follow through in the same style. In this sequel, many of the protagonists of Inheart find their way into the world of the book of the same name. But, gone is the playful allusion to beloved children' classics, and the interesting mix of goodness and flaws in the characters. Stock phrases are repeated over and over again. Action seemed to be written with an eye towards movie rights. And, unlike the ending of the first book, which enabled it to stand on its own, this sequel ends in a very unsatisfactory cliff hanger. In short, after reading it, like Dustfinger, I was left longing for the world painted in Inkheart, which alas, not to be found in Inkspell.
