However, it will make very little sense to those who haven't read Inkheart and Inkspell. In conclusion, Inkdeath is a dark and slowly paced adventure, but still one that will be met with approval from fans of the previous books. The story has gotten much darker since Inkspell, with little lightening humor, but there are occasional well-deserved moments of glowing satisfaction. Villains threaten frequently, carrying out not all but certainly some of said threats, and much of the storyline is centered around the death of a well-liked character. The violence isn't over the top, per say, but it's definitely present.

The InkheartĪuthor, Fenoglio, now living in Inkworld himself, has turned to drink the odious Orpheus, when he's not under a maid's skirt, rewrites Fenoglio's work (editors!) to benefit himself. (Even then, an addendum is needed to identify a cast of 114 characters.) The Inkworld, full of dark magic, is under siege the savagery of the Adderhead and his minions now extends to taking all the peasants' children until somebody delivers, as ransom, the Bluejay, a Robin Hood–style character whose identity has been assumed by Mo, Meggie's father (it was Mo who started all the trouble by reading several villains right out of the book-within-a-book, Inkheart-ĭon't even consider reading this series out of order).
