[Moers is] equal parts J.K. Rowling, Douglas Adams, and Shel Silverstein. (Washington Post)
Zamonia's greatest writer investigates a mystery in a shadowy book metropolis in this epic fantasy adventure by the author of The Alchemaster's Apprentice.
Astonishingly inventive, amusing, and engrossing, this is a captivating story from the wild imagination of Walter Moers.
It has been more than two hundred years since Bookholm was destroyed by a devastating fire, as told in Moers's The City of Dreaming Books. Hildegunst von Mythenmetz, hailed as Zamonia's greatest writer, is on vacation in Lindworm Castle when a disturbing message reaches him, and he must return to Bookholm to investigate a mystery.
The magnificently rebuilt city has once again become a metropolis of storytelling and the book trade. Mythenmetz encounters old friends and new denizens of the city-and the shadowy Invisible Theater.
Moers's Munchhausen-esque yarn is enhanced by his equally wild illustrations. . . . Fans will enjoy journeying through Optimus's battle with darkness. -Publishers Weekly
