Dear Cornelia, I just wanted to post a message to thank you for giving the Inkworld to me! It’s been 8 years since I first read Inkheart, I’ve grown up with the series and I love it just as much today as I did when I read it first (I must confess this is quite obvious when you look at my copy of the book, it’s in an absolute state!!). I’ve read hundreds of books in my life so far, and very few have stood out to me like yours have. Elinor has remained my favourite character, I aspire to be like her when I’m older! I’m learning how to speak German now, and my goal is to someday read Tintenherz in its original language!

Hello Cornelia! I just wanted to tell you how much your Mirrorworld series means to me! I typically reread the whole series every one or two years, switching up between the original and updated versions of the first two books. Recently I got one of my coworkers to try the series as well, and he loved it! We are both anxiously awaiting the fifth book now. It has been such a unique and special experience for me to grow up with Jacob and Fox, I was quite young when I read them for the first time, and now I’m just as old as they are! Please take care, and know that there are fans who are very much looking forward to your work!

Dear Cornelia, I have read all your books published in French. It's been a very long time since the last volume of the Reckless series was published... but still not in French. Please remember that your fans enjoy reading your work in French as well.

Hello Insa, Cornelia, and Guesty! I have a question regarding an upcoming book. A friend of mine who lives in Germany says his cousin might be working with Cornelia on a children's book. Is this true? If so I'm so excited to hear we'll be getting more books coming soon! Does it have a title yet? Love, K.

Dear Cornelia, I read your Inkheart book and I absolutely loved it ,

I am going to be starting Inkspell soon. At the end of the Inkheart book there is a quiz and a few other things, including a riddle-me-ree. It guides to go on your website on to the "Secrets Box" with the answer to the riddle. I was wondering where the secret box is, on your website as I could not locate it? PS: I think the answer is FENOGLIO. looking forward to reading your other books

Dear Cornelia, Your Inkheart series is one of my absolute favorites! Me and my best friend started reading this series and have been obsessed ever since! We were wondering (and hoping!) if you where going to be writing another book. Kari

Hello! My friends and l just finished the Inkheart 4 books, we love them and we are wondering if there a fifth book in the making?

Are you going to write another book in the Inkheart series? I Love Love Love it️

Dear Cornelia, I’m a retired school librarian. Have loved all your books ️ and always suggested them to my students. The Inkheart and Dragon Rider series were always favorites. I personally love the Reckless series and just finished it for the second time. Is book 5 a possibility? My fingers are crossed! Thank you so much for what you give to your readers! We become life long fans.

Hey Cornelia! I've just finished Inkheart and now am onto Inkspell and Inkdeath Can't wait! Love, Niamh, a bookworm

Dear Ms. Funke, I am unsure whether you will read this or if this is even the correct place to put this but I simply wish to say thank you. Thank you for writing a book like Igraine the Brave. I read that book as a little girl so many times and it made me feel that I didn't need to be a damsel in distress I could be a knight. And Being a knight and being brave made me no less intelligent, vulnerable or kind. Thank you for my childhood

Dear Cornelia, I want to thank you for sharing your beautiful worlds with us. I have been a fan for a very long time. My grandma and I would listen to your books all the time the Ink series were the last set we listened to together. They hold a very warm place in my heart. Thank you for being a part of the memories I hold so dear.

Just read the Silver Tracks and the 12-year old I was when I first approached the Mirrorworld just can't help but thank you for this story — I hope I can write something like this one day, and as many others I'm thrilling for the last act! Thank you so much!

Hello Insa, Cornelia, and Guesty! I was just wondering what the process is of how Cornelia picks quotes for the Inkheart books. Are they gathered in a book before starting? Thanks and much love.

In your book "The Book No One Ever Read," I believe there is a grammatical (tense) error. "...That is very young for a book. But he thought that five years ARE an awfully long time to just sit on a shelf." I think it should be "IS an awfully long time". I love your books (including this one) and was surprised to see this error.

The film Ghost hunters on Icy Trail, fell under my radar as a film enthusiast but it was an absolute blast! I never expected how much I was going to enjoy it, having never read one of your books but now, I will be making my first order today! I feel it deserved way more recognition during its original release! I hope many more people will give the film a revisit!

Hello, Cornelia! I don't know if this question has already been asked, but, have you had any confirmations on the release date of the 5th book of the reckless series? I've read everywhere and I just couldn't find it. Ps: I really loved inkheart

Hello, I hope I'm not bothering you, but about two weeks ago I sent in a story for the website and I noticed it's still not on the site. I just wanted to make sure everything was okay? If maybe I need to send it in again?

This isn't a question. See I did everything in my power to avoid the Dragon Rider movie since the trailer drop as it never interested me and was a horrid adaptation of a book I held dear. Today, I just saw Twigleg from the movie for the first time. Why is he so UGLY in the movie!? Oh my  oodness! I knew it was bad, but my god... they didn't even get his orange hair right. So upsetting.

Hello! Long time fan, I just have a simple question that I feel I may have asked before, but I just want to make sure I do this right. I would like to post in your story section a story, of course, but it's a fanfiction. A dragon rider one, and I was wondering if that was okay? I don't know where you stand on that, and if it's not okay, I understand! Thank you!

Hello Cornelia, its your life long friends from Georgia! It has been ages since I have written to you. I read Inkheart to him as a baby. Not knowing he was ASD and wouldnt speak until nearly 5! Your books have created a love of the written word. Now Damien is talking, reading and making all A's in general education classes! He has flourished through reading. Your books played a vital role in our lives. Reading like Mo helped Damien speak! Its the magic of words! We are reading Inkheart again. Now he has a little sweet but fiery little sister named Aurora. I am so proud of you! A fourth book in Inkheart!

Hello. I have just found that you have a page after going down the rabbit hole of my memory. My memory was triggered because of a Bluebeard deep dive I did, and remembered the second book from the Reckless series I read 10 years ago (time sure does fly )

Dear Cornelia Funke, I really like all of your books that I have read so far. Some of the books that I've read are Ruffleclaw, Igraine the Brave, Prinzessin Isabella, and Käpten Knitterbart und seine Bande. They are all very funny! I love that you have such great girl characters in your stories.

Love, Anjali P.S. Can you please write more books for 9-10 year old girls?

When i was a little kid i loved reading every moment i could. No book has impacted me like inkheart. I just finished rereading the series again and cherished the new addition. After i read i am so thankful for your work and i would like to thank you again

Dear Cornelia! Your Ghosthunters book series has been my favorite since I was a kid. I reread the series every few years or so, and it still brings me joy! Please write more Ghosthunters, I'd desperately love to hear more stories. Also, I am an illustrator/ graphic novelist and its one of my dreams to adapt Ghosthunters to graphic novel format. I'd love to discuss that with you one day Most Sincerely, Sarah/GalacticTurnip

Hi Cornelia, I just wanted say thank you for your amazing work. The Reckless series and Inkheart books are some of my favourites I’ve ever read. I love your work and it’s inspired my to write my own as I’m an aspiring writer. I’ve completed a novel and some short stories and am currently outlining what I hope will be another novel. I’ve also been accepted into university to study creative writing and English literature there. Thank you so much for your influence.

Cornelia, I've lived among dragons and fairies for fifty years. Today, I finished one of your books. You do them justice. Thank you.

Gentile Cornelia, nella mia famiglia siamo tutti grandi ammiratori dei suoi libri. Mi chiedevo se inserirà anche una sezione in italiano sulla sua pagina e magari organizzerà anche qualche workshop per giovanissimi/giovani scrittori italiani nella sua tenuta a Volterra. Un cordiale saluto

Hello, Could you please let me know if there will be a dutch translation of the colour of revenge? I read the first 3 Ink books as a child and they are still my favourite books. I am really looking forward to the 4th book! If there is no translation I can also read it in english, but since I have children myself now I would like to be able to read them the dutch version.

I first read Inkheart when I was 11. It was one of my dad's favorites, and it quickly became mine. Since then, I have read/listened to all three many times. Now, at 30 years old, I found a new release in my favorite series. I find it funny the story's theme of the power of words, and my excitement over new words writen and published almost 20 years later here in my own story. Thank you for being such a positive point in what is the majority of my life. To anyone who hasn't read the Inkworld series, please do. ^w^
