A Goodreads user asked Cornelia Funke:

I've heard about your new book that happens five years after Inkdeath, is it mostly about Dante or Meggie? When will it come out? Is Dante's father and mother Mo and Resa? I'm sorry for all my questions, the Inkworld series has changed my life both in school and out. I've become a bookworm, I never watch TV or play video games any more, and I've been moved up to the highest reading level, all because of your books!!!

Cornelia Funke what a compliment!:))) Thank you so much! And I hope you'll never regret that my stories caused your book addiction!:)
Here are some answers:
No, THE COLOUR OF REVENGE will mostly be about Dustfinger, Orpheus, the Black Prince, Jehan and a few new characters. The others will appear as well but....to say more would give away too much!
YEs, Dante's parents are Mo and Resa.
I don't know yet when it will come out. I may publish it in parts to not have you all wait for too long:)

Graycelin asked Cornelia Funke:

Hi Cornelia. I read Inkheart, and loved it! I enjoy writing my own stories, but struggle for a balance between too detailed and not detailed enough. I don't want the story to seem too vague, but I don't want it to be boring with a ton of details. How did you find the balance when you were writing Inkheart? Thanks! Graycelin (12)

Hi Cornelia. I think most people who read Inkheart fall in love with it as I did. It is a wonderful, inventive, creative story. Do you think your ability to illustrate inspired you to choose fantasy as an author?

Amanda asked Cornelia Funke:

Inkworld trilogy will always stay in my heart for it's the one and only series that I finished in a single sitting reading a book a day, and Reckless is one of my all time favorite series. As I'm also an avid fan of languages (with German as my 1st foreign language<3) so I'm curious: do you prefer writing everything primarily in German or do you also like to write directly in English?
