Product Description
The Adderhead--his immortality bound in a book by Meggie's father, Mo--has ordered his henchmen to plunder the villages. The peasants' only defense is a band of outlaws led by the Bluejay--Mo's fictitious double, whose identity he has reluctantly adopted. But the Book of Immortality is unraveling, and the Adderhead again fears the White Women of Death. To bring the renegade Bluejay back to repair the book, the Adderhead kidnaps all the children in the kingdom, dooming them to slavery in his silver mines unless Mo surrends. First Dustfinger, now Mo: Can anyone save this cursed story?

Funke is on a serious roll September 26, 2008 She who Reviews (E.H.T., N.J. United States) 56 out of 63 found this review helpful
I love the Inkheart trilogy, I seriously can't get enough of it! I must admit at first I was somewhat reluctant to read the conclusion to the trilogy, afraid it might be a letdown as most serie-enders are becoming, but it was as excellent as the first and second books (not to mention the breathtaking cover). Its excellently paced, descriptive, suspenseful, and keeps you flipping the pages, just salivating for the finish. I admit it started a little slow in my opinion, but it definitely picked up and kept my interest; I just couldn't put it down. I don't really want to give anything away, except that this is an amazing book, and you cannot miss out on it.
Sad that it is over October 7, 2008 Jennie Geiman 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This was a really good ending to the series! I loved all the twists the story took. It was like riding with a giant and you have no idea where it is going to take you but you don't want to be left out of the excitement. I am sad that these books are over because I grew up with them. Cornelia Funke is one of my all time favorite authors and I hope to read more by her in the future. Thank you Cornelia Funke for one of the best rides that books can give!
Conclusion October 21, 2008 Erna K. Drechsler (California) I waited in anticipation for this book. I loved the previous ones and was hoping this one wouldn't disappoint and it didn't. First of all let me say that the characters are NOT created for us. The author is sharing herself with us. The characters are hers. With that said, I took my time with the book and read it as slowly as I could. I loved it. I haven't anticipated a book this much since Harry Potter. Kudos to the author for a wonderful and enduring series.
She saved the best for last! October 28, 2008 Jocelyn Lail (Ridgecrest, Ca) Though I love all of the books in the Inkheart trilogy (what would one be without the others?), Inkdeath is by far my favorite! Here is what I liked about Inkdeath: The story moved at a great pace that kept me reading ( I hated to put it down..but what is a grown-up to do?) The characters were true to the other books and clearly evolving with the story The plot had several twists and turns, leaving you wondering what was going to happen next And finally, it just blew me away! The creativity and detail was enough to have me thinking even when the book was closed. Great trilogy and another job well done by Cornelia Funke!
Great and Fitting Ending October 29, 2008 Brett Benner (Los Angeles, CA USA) There is nothing so gratifying as closing the last page of a series, and having it be as enriching, enchanting, and delightful as the first. Cornelia Funke has outdone herself with the conclusion of the trilogy, adding new wonders to an already glorious world. The thing that makes this series stand out from the glut of novels like this, is it's wide appeal to people of all ages, much like the boy wizard series.
