![]() ![]() Even though I like the Inkworld, I still thought that the book dragged a bit.īut the real problem that I had with Inkdeath was that, even though this is a children's book, the primary child character, Meggie, doesn't really do much. It was like Funke didn't want to let go of the Inkworld herself, and so she introduced new wonders (giants, people living in nests up in trees), and a whole new castle, with a long journey through the woods to get there. It seemed long, and not in that "falling into the book" way. ![]() This makes it very difficult to admit that I actually had a hard time getting through the third book. I liked the first two books in the Inkworld series a lot (I didn't review them because I listened to them on audio, but I enjoyed them both immensely). Don't even think about reading the books out of order. If you aren't familiar with the series, go and read Inkheart and Inkspell, and then come back here when you're finished. I'm not going to give you a plot summary, since I don't want to spoil the book, but I am going to offer up some thoughts about Inkdeath. ![]() Inkdeath is the final book in Cornelia Funke's Inkworld trilogy, after Inkheart and Inkspell. I was excited to get an advance copy of Inkdeath at ALA last month. ![]()
