Ever since the events of Inkspell, when the story of
Inkheart drew Meggie, Mo and Dustfinger back into its pages,
life in the Inkworld has been far from easy. With Dustfinger dead, and
the evil Adderhead now in control, the story in which they are all
caught has taken an unhappy turn. Even Elinor,left alone in the real
world, believes her family to be lost-lostbetween the covers of a book.
As winter turns to spring, there is a reason to hope, but only if Maggie and Mo are ready to face it.

When I first read inkheart and inkspell I thought they were original and creative books. I was so excited for inkdeath and when it came out and I bought it, lets just say it was horrible and thats putting it mildly. It was a badly written book. In fact, I struggled to finish it - if I hadn't got
a policy of always finishing books I start, I probably would have put
it down and stopped reading.

The plot was terrible, the characters were all over the place, and it rushes into a climax and throws all the action into about 5% of the
novel, leaving many subplots and ideas that started finished with
sometimes only a sentence.

Lets just it wasn't a good ending to the trilogy.
