Our view
“Inkspell” moves the Inkheart story into another world altogether, and that world is the great strength of this second volume. Its characters must hide there, find one another and look for a way home. Some readers find it dull for so appealing an idea, and it runs to more than six hundred and fifty pages. It reads well from about eleven upwards, adults included.
