Title: Lose yourself in a good book
Review: Ignoring her own better judgment, Meggie does the impossible, reading herself into Inkworld. She's planning a sort of sightseeing vacation, a brief tour to see the fairies, talking trees, and other amazing elements described to her so vividly by her mom. Just like Gilligan's, Meggie's own little tour turns into something quite different. Once again, author Funke creates a place out of time, populated with many of the characters from Inkheart (Basta, Dustfinger, Farid, Mo), and adding many more, eg, a good prince and an evil one, strolling players, Dustfinger's wife and daughter). Once again, bonds of loyalty, love, selflessness drive and shape the energetic plot. Inkspell is a nonstop adventure set in a cruel, feudalistic society, where the written word, properly wielded, can be the most powerful force of all. Recommended for all who enjoy effective, credible fantasy fiction.
