When their father goes missing after a mysterious train crash, Everett and his little sister Bea find a curious pen in his belongings, and its magical Ink begins to rewrite their once-ordinary lives. The Ink leads them to a world they never knew existed—one teeming with impossible magic, formidable allies, and villains who are determined to destroy everything they hold dear. Together, Everett and Bea embark on an adventure through secret tunnels in England and Scotland to find and protect the last Inkwell, and ultimately to save their father.
But in order to do so, Everett must find a way to tap into the most magical power of all: his courage.
Perfect for fans of The Chronicles of Narnia and Harry Potter, this classic battle of good and evil pits creativity against the forces that would seek to blot it out for good. It’s Middle Grade fantasy at its best.
Parents, teachers and librarians will delight in discovering the subtle references to classic literature, authors and history woven into the fabric of the story. Readers will be introduced to the likes of C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Dorothy Sayers, Madeleine L’Engle and many more.
