Following the release of the first Inkheart novel, New Line Cinema bought the film rights to all three books for a cinema adaptation. One night, a man named Dustfinger visits Mo. Meggie overhears Dustfinger telling Mo that a man named Capricorn is looking for him. The next morning, Mo unexpectedly announces that he and Meggie have to go to Meggie's Aunt Elinor's house because Mo has to fix some books.
Dustfinger joins them on the way. Mo sets off to work, and Meggie talks to Dustfinger, where she is introduced to Dustfinger's pet marten, Gwin. A short while after, Mo is captured by people with unusual names, bringing along with him a book, Inkheart.
Meggie and Elinor tell the police, but the police just think they are out of their minds. Dustfinger, Maggie, and Elinor plan to venture to Capricorn's village where her father is being held. The three are taken to Capricorn's house where he waits for them. Elinor and Meggie are thrown into the cell where Mo is being held and they reunite, while Dustfinger disappears. Meggie makes Mo tells the story of why they were there. A long time ago her father was reading Inkheart to Meggie's mother, Teresa.
Mo found out that he had a special gift where he could bring things out of books just by reading aloud, but that came with a price, for everything that comes out of the book, something must go in. So, while reading the seventh chapter, three of the main characters from the book, Capricorn, Basta, and Dustfinger, come out of the book and into their house.
Capricorn tries to fight Mo, but eventually Mo forces them out of his house. When he turns back, Teresa and their two cats that were sitting on her lap were gone and Meggie was crying. He later tried many more times to get his wife out of the book, but his power failed him. Capricorn makes Mo read aloud. That night, Dustfinger breaks out all of the prisoners. Meggie the main character of this novel have only her father to herself since her mother went away when she was young.
Mo the father of Meggie told her daughter to read when she was only five, and the two shares a mutual love of books. He can easily read the characters out of books. When Meggie was only three years old, he read aloud from a book called Inkheart and released the characters into the real world. The writer of this novel amazingly describes the joys, terrors, and pitfalls of reading. The novel relates how the villainous basta and his horrible boss, Capricorn, appear kidnap Mo and are tracked to their hideout in a ruined Italian village.
The main problem in this storyline is that two villains are two-dimensional characters. When a stranger knocks at their door, Mo is forced to reveal an extraordinary secret - when he reads aloud, words come alive, and dangerous characters step out of the pages. Suddenly Meggie is living the kind of adventure she has only read about in books, but this one will change her life for ever 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. 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. First Dustfinger, now Mo: Can anyone save this cursed story? One cruel night, Meggie's father, Mo, reads aloud from Inkheart and an evil ruler named Capricorn escapes the boundaries of fiction and lands in the middle of their living room.
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 world of his past.
Distraught, Farid goes in search of Meggie, and before long, both are caught inside the book, too. But the story is threatening to evolve in ways neither of them could ever have imagined.
Since Meggie's bookbinder father can "read" fictional characters to life one abducts them; Meggie "reads" herself into Inkworld as the original creator of the world tries to redirect the story; and the Book of Immortality starts to unravel. As Bluejay--Mo's fictitious double--tries to keep the Book of Immortality from unraveling, Adderhead kidnaps all the children in the kingdom, asking for Bluejay's surrender or the children will be doomed to slavery in the silver mines. Twelve-year-old Meggie learns that her father, Mo, who repairs and binds books for a living, can "read" fictional characters to life when one of those characters abducts them and tries to force him into service.
