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 surrenders.

Описание:
Meggie ama i libri. E li ama moltissimo anche il padre Mo, che però rifiuta di leggerli a voce alta. Se lo facesse, infatti, porterebbe la vita nei libri e i personaggi dei libri alla vita. In una notte crudele lesse «Cuore d'inchiostro» e un malvagio signore dal cuore nero, Capricorno, si liberò dai lacci delle parole per materializzarsi nel suo salotto. In quell'attimo fatale accadde anche qualcosa di più grave: la moglie di Mo scomparve per sempre tra le pagine del libro.

Описание:
Meggie e suo padre Mo hanno il dono di far vivere le parole: ciò che leggono a voce alta, semplicemente, accade. Ma da quando loro stessi sono entrati nel Mondo d'inchiostro, sono rimasti coinvolti fino al collo nelle vite, nelle emozioni e negli inganni di questo magico universo parallelo. Incendi di villaggi ed esecuzioni di innocenti avvelenano un mondo in cui dovrebbero danzare le fate e nuotare le ninfe, e Mo è costretto a dividersi tra i giorni sereni con sua moglie e sua figlia e le notti insanguinate al fianco del Principe Nero, passate a combattere gli sgherri di Testa di Serpente. È stato proprio Mo a rilegare il Libro Vuoto che da l'immortalità al malvagio signore, ma sa anche che presto il volume si deteriorerà. Perché non tutto è scritto, e il destino di ciascuno è Top page ancora aperto. Età di lettura: da 12 anni.
