Saturday Savant Spot

I have finished Inkspell and am ready for Inkdeath the last installment of the Inkheart series of books by Cornelia Funke.
Published by Scholastic, truly a masterpiece in the making.
A brilliant world that every Savant dreams about entering just once in their lifetime. To actually be in your favorite story? Live your life with the lives you have only read about in a book?
A book lovers read.

Fantasy, action, adventure, family, death. Just my kind of read.

In this installment, Dustfinger gets his wish, he is read back into his story, into his life and we see what he has been missing for over 10 years!
His family, his wife, daughter (he had 2 daughters but one died before he gets back into his story, the original Inkheart). We meet his friends and other "strolling players", The "Barn Owl" the Inkworlds doctor/Sawbones, the fairies, we walk through the Wayless Woods, meet the Black Prince and his bear. Cosimo the Fair comes back from the dead and Her Uglyness looses her awful birth mark on her face to be known just as Violante.

Just when Meggie, gets her mother back from the Inkworld and back to their story is when she gets sucked into the Inkworld herself with Farid, the boy who was pulled out of his story by Mo AKA Silvertongue and Meggie's father. She realizes she has her fathers gift of reading things (and people) in and out of stories, bringing the pages of ink to life.

Meggie and Farid's search for Dustfinger and Fenoglio, (the author of Inkheart) to get her back to her story and Farid back with Dustfinger, was no easy task, but they reunited and then the fun begins!
Elinore is held captive in her own home with Darius, Mo and Resa (Meggie's mother) get read back into Inkheart, and you have no idea what I am talking about, but you want to!

Fabulous read! I am so thrilled to start Inkdeath, and in the immortal words of Farid, "This story shall have a happy ending, I swear."


Happy reading!
