I love the world that Cornell’s Funke has made. I loved inkheart and this one would have been better it just seemed to drag in some areas and my mind is wanting to get tho the last book faster

This book was even better than the first one. I am excited to see what waits for me between the pages of the final book in the series, Inkdeath. If it is anything like the two before it, I would struggle to put it down.

This book has one of my favorite ideas in it: how much control over a story do you have once it’s written? How much does it live and breathe on its own (in our world, by how it’s interpreted by readers)? How much should an author try to revise it (looking at you, JK Rowling)? We finally get to see the Inkworld in all its weird and wonderful glory. The translation feels less clunky than with Inkheart, though the book could still do with tighter editing. This is miles better than Inkheart, and one thing that absolutely made it magical was Brendan Fraser’s gorgeous narration.
