A year has passed, but not a day goes by without Meggie thinking of Inkheart, the book whose characters came to life. For the fire-eater Dustfinger, the need to return to the tale has become desperate. When he finds a crooked storyteller to read him back, he abandons his apprentice Farid and plunges into the pages. Before long, Farid and Meggie are caught inside the book, too. But the story is much changed-and threatening to end tragically.
Review
Before I begin *Spoiler alert* please if you have not read Inkheart the first book, do NOT read this review it will contain information on Inkheart.
Inkspell continues on with the story of Inkheart a year later, Meggie, Mo (Silvertongue), and Resa all back at Elinor's house, but before long Dustfinger finds a way to get into the book. Leaving Farid behind he reaches out to Meggie, who can also read things out of books, seeing as she longed to see Inkheart as well, Meggie reads them both in.
The plot is quiet exciting with many new characters and old characters in the world of Inkheart. Some expected-yet surprising romances. The only thing that I didn't like about Inkspell was the telling and not so much showing like Inkheart, other than that I loved this book.
Other little things that I really liked are the quotes on every chapter, the map of the Inkworld, and the Character index I guess you could call it, describing the important characters of the book.
I give Inkspell a 4.5, because it is truly and Inkspell.
