Publisher's Notes
First Line: "Rain fell that night, a fine, whispering rain. Many years later, Meggie had only to close her eyes and she could still hear it, like tiny fingers tapping on the windowpane."
Industry Reviews
"Funke takes her time with her tale, investing her situations with palpable menace and limning her characters with acute sensitivity; she creates in Meggie a stalwart heroine who never loses her childish nature even as she works to contain the monster and bring her mother back....a true feast for anyone who has ever been lost in a book."
Kirkus Reviews (09/15/2003)
"Funke once again proves the power of her imagination; readers will be captivated by the chilling and thrilling world she has created here."
Publishers Weekly (07/21/2003)
"The densely written but smooth text is richly descriptive, creating memorable characters and vivid images of the Italian countryside."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Janice M. Del Negro (03/01/2004)
