Imagine it were possible to bring the characters from a book to life. Not like when you listen to an audiobook with such enchantment that the characters seem to jump off the pages and into your bedroom...but for real. Imagine they could actually climb out of the pages and into our world. Then imagine if those characters brought their world into ours.

Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. No matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to stay out of trouble. But can he really be expected to stand by and watch while a bully picks on his scrawny best friend? Or not defend himself against his pre-algebra teacher when she turns into a monster and tries to kill him? Of course, no one believes Percy about the monster incident; he's not even sure he believes himself.

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Resumen del Editor
But for Dustfinger, the fire-eater brought into being from words, the need to return to the tale has become desperate. When he finds a crooked storyteller with the ability to read him back, Dustfinger leaves behind his young apprentice Farid and plunges into the medieval inkscape once more.
Distraught, Farid goes in search of Meggie, and before long, both are caught inside the book, too. There they meet Inkheart's author, Fenoglio, now living within his own story. But the tale is much changed, and threatening to evolve in ways none of them would ever have imagined. Will Meggie, Farid, and Fenoglio manage to write the wrongs of a charmed world? Or is their story on the brink of a very bad ending?

Brendan Fraser??
While my husband and I are enjoying the story and writing in Inkspell even more than the original Inkheart, the switch in readers from the very talented Lynn Redgrave to the very.... um... good-looking.... Brendan Fraser has made listening to this series a chore. We have several times been tempted to go purchase the actual book so we can finish the story without Fraser's horribly jarring narration, but having spent so much money on the audiobook here at Audible, we feel like we might as well try to finish it.
Our chief complaint is his decision to voice almost all young or female characters as shrill and screeching. We dread the chapters featuring Elenor, though Redgrave's portrayal of her in the first book made her one of our favorite characters. Also irritating is how almost every character is given a strong foreign accent based apparently on cultural stereotypes. Even though almost all of these characters are supposed to live in the same general region and speak the same language, romantic women have thick Tuscan accents, evil women have a strong Russian accent heavily reminiscent of Bullwinkle cartoons, uppity characters have French accents so thick you can barely make them out, criminals are Cockney, heroes are Irish, the only character actually described in the story as Italian sounds like a Jersey mob boss, and the only Black character, of course, sounds like he could have starred in Forrest Gump. Finally, Fraser's constant. over. enunci. ation. of. words. for. em. pha. sis is driving us nuts. This isn't Star Trek!
This is a very entertaining and well-written story, but if the quality of the narration is at all important to you, I recommend purchasing the actual book and reading it yourself.

Sample before downloading.
I understand the dismay of many listeners. Lynn Redgrave was impeccable. Brendan Fraser is anything but restrained. For some people, this was aggravating but lucky me, I enjoy his performance. While I'm disappointed in the director and producer for not taking the time to correct his missteps, I was able to recover my listening experience each time. In the end, must conclude the whole story would be better served by a full cast (as in GOLDEN COMPASS) vs. the punishing work of all those characters falling to one actor. Worth the listen, for me. And I would gladly hear other Brendan Fraser work. And I am saving up points to get the next volume, which reader sounds terrific too.

I loved the narrator of Inkheart, I couldn't get used to all of the voices and how they had changed. Cornelia Funke is an excellent writer and all of her work should be read (or listened to.)

Brendan Frasier?
I know he was in the horrible movie, but now he's completely ruined my ability to listen to the rest of this story. He's too loud and then too quiet, and everything feels over acted. I love this book, and this story, but I won't be finishing this audiobook. Waste of a credit.

Wanting
I read the Inkworld books long ago and have been listening to audiobooks for some time now. It’s really the only way I read books now. The story is beautiful and a great sequel to Inkheart. Like many others, I like Brenden Fraser as an actor and he didn’t ruin the story with his reading, but there is much to be wanted. Between dramatically different accent choices and an elaboration of sighs and noises, Fraser had a monotone drag that was almost inaudible. At some points, he would hit a strive that was nice, because he does have a nice voice, but then there would be an abrupt disruption of screeching or rather poor search for a character’s accent (which was often times, stereotypical). I love the book to much to say it’s not worth listening to.

the story whisperer
I love this story and Brendan Fraser.
too bad at times he whispers so quietly you can barely hear him. I had to return this audio version.

It was good
I had just finished Inkheart and was alittle dissapointed that audible changed readers because the women who read Inkheart was so amazing, but as you get into the story more, Brendon Frazer didnt do a bad job and you start to get used to his words. loved the book just as much.

Great story, Inconsistent narration
This story was wonderful, but the nicest thing I can say about the narration is that it was inconsistent. Fraser's reading was distracting and jarring throughout. The characters were given a variety of thick stereotypical accents from various regions, many of which made little to no sense with the storyline, and the female characters all screeched and squawked like crows. Eleanor and Mo were two of my favorite characters in InkHeart, but I didn't care for either of them in this reading. All of the characters were over-dramatized and the over-the-top accents weren't even sustained evenly throughout the narration. The speed and volume were wildly inconsistent as well. I've never had to toggle my volume button so much in a single novel! He read some parts just above a whisper and stretched out the narration in a Shatner-esque staccato where it made no sense to do so. When he wasn't whispering, he was squawking and shouting, racing through the text like an auctioneer -- sometimes this would make sense (as in an action scene), but other times a character would be in quiet contemplation, (considering possibilities) and he raced through it wildly. My son and I listened to this on a road trip and we both agreed to get the paper version of this novel when we get home so we can re-read it together.
