In this third book of the trilogy we once again return to the world
inside of the book Inkheart.  Evil in the form of Adderhead has taken
over the world and people are in constant fear. Dustfinger, the
fireeater, is dead trying to save his apprentice, Farid. Elinor has
been left behind in the real world and thinks her entire family is now
dead. Mo, as Bluebird, becomes a hero to the people and he makes a
deal with the White Women of death to try and save the people.  Mo's
daughter Meggie continues to believe in her father.  This 682 is a
heavy read... there are so many characters living in two separate
worlds. I didn't realize until I was done, that there is a glossary at
the end helping the reader.  There reader is brought back and forth
between two story-lines in the book world and the one story-line back
in the real world.  Good readers who enjoyed the first two in the
series, will live through the slow beginning of this book to the
exciting conclusion.  A movie will be released this month (January
2009) and you can see clips on youtube.  Although I have enjoyed this
series, I have not had much interest in them.. but with the movie out
now....who knows.
