From the back of the book:One cruel night, Meggie''s father reads aloud from a book called Inkheart -- and an evil ruler escapes the boundaries of fiction and lands in their living room. Suddenly, Meggie is smack in the middle of the kind of adventure she has only read about in books. Meggie must learn to harness the magic that has conjured this nightmare. For only she can change the course of the story that has changed her life forever.
Cornelia Funke is a German author who seems to have recently exploded into the English speaking world. Her fiction is highly imaginative and rather addictive. I am reading as much of it as I can, as fast as I can.
Inkheart has a sequel.
Originally in German.
