The second book in Cornelia Funke's internationally celebrated
trilogy – magical, thrilling and mesmerising.

'I don't think I've ever read anything that conveys so well
the joys, terrors and pitfalls of reading' Diana Wynne
Jones


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 for ever.


But for Dustfinger, the fire-eater, torn from his world of words,
the need to return has become desperate.


When he finds a crooked storyteller with the magical ability to
read him back, he sets in motion a dangerous reversal that sees
the characters of Inkheart transported to a charmed Inkworld,
about to be fought over by rival rebels and princes ...






A thrilling and magical series about stories and the
imagination they inspire

Book 1, Inkheart, is now a major movie
