Zamoniaâs greatest writer investigates a mystery in a shadowy book metropolis in this epic adventure by the author of The Alchemasterâs Apprentice. It has been more than two hundred years since Bookholm was destroyed by a devastating fire, as told in Moersâs The City of Dreaming Books. Hildegunst von Mythenmetz, hailed as Zamoniaâs 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 cityâand the shadowy âInvisible Theater.â Astonishingly inventive, amusing, and engrossing, this is a captivating story from the wild imagination of Walter Moers. Praise for The Labyrinth of Dreaming Books âWhat matters are his engaging descriptions, zany scenarios and the weird critters that inhabit Zamonia, some of whom bear an uncanny resemblance to Barney the dinosaur . . . A beguiling, bookish entertainment that ends on a cliffhanger promisingâwell, the prospect of many sequels to come.â âKirkus Reviews âMoers's Munchhausen-esque yarn is enhanced by his equally wild illustrations. . . . Fans will enjoy journeying through Optimus's battle with darkness.â âPublishers Weekly
