Living Shadows
Living Shadows | Cornelia Funke
8 posts | 11 read | 7 to read
Jacob Reckless returns once again to the Mirrorworld filled with profound characters, extraordinary creatures, and epic life-or-death treasure hunts that could only come from the mind of the master storyteller of our generation, Cornelia Funke. Jacob Reckless has only a few months left to live. He's tried everything to shake the Fairy curse that traded his life for his brother's legends such as the All-Healing Apple, the Well of Eternal Youth, the blood of a northern Djinn. And yet hope after hope is extinguished. After months of fruitless searching, Jacob journeys through his father's mirror one final time to deliver the bad news to Fox. But there they hear of one last possibility an item so legendary that not even MirrorWorlders believe it exists: a crossbow that can kill thousands, or heal one, when shot through the heart. But a Goyl treasure hunter is also searching for the prized crossbow. Jacob must find it first and somehow convince Fox to do whatever it takes to save him."

Aaaand I binged part two of this series as well😅
Cornelia Funke did not disappoint in the sequel, might have even liked it better than part one.
There are two more to go which messes completely with my current reading schedule😂

I read the sequel to Steinernes Fleisch today on my parents boat 🚤, and we had two visitors as well! Lebendige Schatten is an improvement to the first book, there is barely any Will & Clara in it (yeah!) and we learn much more about the Spiegelwelt. On to book 3!

I chose this author as my “Author Study“. So, I figured why not add it to my Litsy list. “Fearless“ by Cornelia funke is part of a series and the second book in that series. Although it is considered a book for grades 7 & up, I feel it is safe enough for 5th and 6th graders in the elementary level. The UDL 4.1 regarding varying the methods for response & navigation along with EL 2 for promoting cooperation. A must read of all ages #UCFLAE3414F19

Tinks A world where you can get lost in, from one page to the next. It's a world on the other side of a mirror that will enchant you with colorful details and have you warming up at times to even the meanest of characters. This book is about urgency and desperation that will keep you at the edge of your seat and wanting more. Best under MF or SF. Teaching Strategy AS #UCFLAE3414F19 #CMC (edited) 5y

Never being able to finish reading all the books I want to read before my time on earth is up!
But how to overcome that fear except to read faster?? 😂

IamIamIam I'm always terrified we're going to have a fire. With the books and comics in this house, it would burn for weeks! I'd be living in Centralia!!! 7y

So I was gifted book one in this cover last year. I have seen this book lots and love Funke but this book normally has a very dark cover. Bother the original us and paper back editions. This is just so light and makes the books seem light. Book one has a pink cover.

JoRead This is very lovely cover 7y
Marla Love this cover! 7y
