  <default-description>Alyss of Wonderland's rule has only just begun and already those who prefer chaos to peace are threatening to destroy everything worth imagining. Trailed by newly appointed Royal Bodyguard Homburg Molly, Alyss does her best to keep pace with the spiraling, non-stop demands of being Queen while attempting to evade Molly for a few private moments with Dodge. Alyss's life is already a challenging mix of duty, love and imagining when a series of phantom sightings set fire to an urban myth of her Imperial Viciousness's return and have everyone&amp;#133;Seeing Redd.&lt;i&gt; Has Redd somehow freed herself and her chief assassin, the Cat, from the confines of the Heart Crystal to challenge her niece once again? If not, then who has resurrected Redd's brutal footsoldiers, the Glass Eyes, and set them loose to attack Wonderland on all sides?&lt;/i&gt; Battles rage, looking glasses explode and the Alyssians are once again uniting to defend White Imagination in this fast-paced second book in The Looking Glass Wars trilogy.</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[I will start by saying that this book did not have the flair of the first, the writer seems to have started out with a promising and unique idea but slowly these ideas have been warped into a story that barely does the first any form of justice. I loved The Looking Glass Wars, it was an interesting ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/70130506">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was extremely engaging. It picks up right where the first book left off, with Alyss as the new queen of Wonderland surrounded by those characters we have grown to love from the last book. And she needs them all as she is facing intrigue from a number of sides. King Arch of Boarderland has ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/52900021">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[excellent sequel, but i have so many questions and thoughts about what might happen in the next book.  alice is a much stronger character, and her relationship with dodge becomes clearer though there is still that awkwardness that we can probably all relate to.  redd is a badass.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Why are second books in series always the less desirable? I had to give this a three star (Looking Glass wars was a 4) because it was a little too boyish for me when it got caught up in military stategies and movements instead of romance. I had all these expectations of what Alyss and Dodge were goi...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/56806837">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book seems disjointed to me. The story is interesting, but the narrative seems to drag itself through the conclusion. The last couple of chapters (the action scenes mainly) are the only parts of the book that don't seem to be weighted down.<br/><br/>Maybe the parts of the book show through to...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/65144330">more...</a>]]></body>
