The Book Smugglers by Anna James
4.0
Fourth part from the bookwandering series!
This part was a little bit harder to follow.
We encounter new characters, a layer inside the book world and there was a lot of “and then some more”.
I normally always do chores / walk the dogs / drive / work while listening, but this time I actually had to pause sometimes or rewind a little bit.
Milo lives on board of the “Quip” – a magical train that uses the power of imagination to travel through both Story and the real world. The train is owned by Milo’s uncle, Horatio, and Milo has witnessed many of his uncle’s dodgy dealings as a book smuggler trading in rare books.
When Horatio takes on a dangerous new job, he needs the help of Tilly Pages. Milo and Tilly find themselves racing against time – and to figure out what is going on.
Their journey takes them in pursuit of the mysterious Alchemist. The very essence of imagination, story itself, may be in danger!
