1) Mass Market Paperback Book Inkspell (Inkheart) by The Chicken House. This is the second book in the "Inkheart" series, and it´s as good as the first! Bought this one for my neice, as well, and can´t wait for the third book to come out!¤

2) Mass Market Paperback Book Inkspell (Inkheart) by The Chicken House. Yay, I´m being immature with my titles. Anyways. I´m going to be honest and blunt: It´s been a while since I read this book, or it least part of the book. Now, I really tried to read it, I swear I did. I tried to stick with it... However, the book wasn´t as good as Inkheart.

I really liked Inkheart, it was original, fun, and entertaining to read. I was so excited when I got Inkspell, I could hardly wait to read it...Until I started reading it. I got bored, I´ve tried to read it a number of times, but I always put it down after the first fifty pages or so. I just can´t get enveloped in the story again. I´m not sure why, maybe because my tastes have changed, or maybe because the plot of Inkheart was original, but something that you only hear once and find it exciting before you get bored with it.

I´ll update this if I ever manage to plow through the book, but most likely it´s going to stay on my book case for a long time.

3) Mass Market Paperback Book Inkspell (Inkheart) by The Chicken House. i was 10 years old when i read this book it was my mom who gave it to me because i had a post highschool score for reading and needed something hard. it easily topped my favorite book list with the adventure mixed with the romance. that were mixed just like they were a delicous soup.
now im 12 and it still tops my best book list. when farid kissed meggie i felt as though i was flying. ms. funke made this the most loveablebook of all¤

4) Mass Market Paperback Book Inkspell (Inkheart) by The Chicken House. Let me start of by saying, THIS BOOK IS EXTREMELY BORING. Most of the chapters are pointless, and if they were taken out, you could still understand the story. When I was halfway finished, my friend asked if he could borrow this book. He hasn´t returned it yet (And it´s been almost a year), and I´m not complaining.

PS: I loved Inkheart.¤

5) Mass Market Paperback Book Inkspell (Inkheart) by The Chicken House. I was expecting a much worse copy of harry potter´s books and I was really surprised when I discovered this books are even more interesting and, by far, much better written. I could say they are more adults although still full of imagination.¤

6) Mass Market Paperback Book Inkspell (Inkheart) by The Chicken House. Although a year has passed, not a day goes by without Meggie thinking of INKHEART, the book whose characters became real. But for Dustfinger, the fire-eater brought into being from words, the need to return to the tale has become desperate. When he finds a crooked storyteller with the ability to read him back, Dustfinger leaves behind his young apprentice Farid and plunges into the medieval world of his past. Distraught, Farid goes in search of Meggie, and before long, both are caught inside the book, too. But the story is threatening to evolve in ways neither of them could ever have imagined.¤

7) Mass Market Paperback Book Inkspell (Inkheart) by The Chicken House. Just a few chapters into Inkspell, Mo (a.k.a. "Silvertongue") sagely says to his daughter, "Stories never really end, Meggie, even if the books like to pretend they do. Stories always go on. They don´t end on the last page, any more than they begin on the first page." A fitting meta-observation for this, the unplanned second installment in Cornelia Funke´s beloved now-trilogy.

Of course, it´s that sort of earnest, almost gushing veneration of books and book-loving that made the absorbing suspense-fantasy Inkheart so wonderful in the first place, with that lit-affection getting woven integrally into the plot (Inkheart being both Funke´s first book in the series, and the fictitious book within that book, authored by the frustrated Fenoglio, now trapped within the book, er, within the book. Fenoglio, perhaps not surprisingly, self-referentially wishes in Inkspell that he had written a sequel to Inkheart.) Inkspell should serve as a special treat for fans of the first book, as characters from Inkheart who have found themselves in the "real world" (if there is such a thing) find themselves read back into their own mythic, word-spun world--along with some of our favorite "real-world" characters. As with the previous book, Funke´s greatest accomplishment here is telling such a rich and involving (and fun!) story, while still managing sweet, subtle commentary on the nature of words and meaning. Expect a tantalizing finale, too--as Funke says, "No reader will forgive me the ending, though, without a part three." (Ages 8 and up) --Paul Hughes¤
