"Imagine it were possible to bring the characters from a book to life. Not like when someone reads a book which 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.
One cruel night, young Meggie's father, Mo, reads aloud from Inkheart and an evil ruler named Capricorn escapes the boundaries of fiction and lands in their living room. Suddenly, Meggie is smack in the middle of the kind of adventure she has only read about in books.
Somehow, Meggie and Mo must learn to harness the magic that conjured this nightmare. Somehow they must change the course of the story that has changed their lives forever.
This is Inkheart, a timeless tale about books, about imagination, about life."

It's a wonderful fantasy/action-adventure book. I always come back to it. There is also the second book.. Inkspell.. and then the last.. Inkdeath. I suggest reading it sometime if you get the chance to.
