I absolutely love this author and have read several of his books beginning with City of Dreaming Books - the first of his "dreaming books" stories. Unfortunately in the case of Labyrinth of Dreaming Books, this story is to be continued in a third book, which as of this writing, has not become available as of yet that I am aware of. Its been a couple years at least and I'm still waiting for the completion of this story. Despite that, Walter Moers has a wonderful imagination and I love following his character's adventures just for the fun of seeing where they will lead me.Walter Moers once again brings another great translation of Yarnspinner's works to us readers >_>. Compared to the last book, The City of Dreaming Books, this new book seems more about how we read and what that entails. This book is still an epic adventure but in a different way to the original book. It will certainly grab hold and take you along for a great ride filled with fantastical scenes and literary comparisons that will have many a reader entertained and wanting for more. A good read overall, and well worth your time whether you've delved into the world of Zamonia already of not(I would recommend to read the first book since this one does make references to it).Not sure if the cliffhanger ending got me or if im just really excited that another book will be out soonWalter Moers spins an awesome modern fairy tale. Imaginative details. I heart Zamonia!This book is an amazing addition to Moers' books. I would recommended reading The City Of Dreaming Books first though.This book can be read alone but is better read after The City of Dreaming Books. Moers books are fantasy at its best. This one is about a Tyrannosaurus who is an author, but who has lost his "orm" or vision in later life (being well over a hundred now) so he returns to the city where he once nearly died. I wont say much more, but its a wild ride with illustrations that work well on the kindle, without which the book would be much poorer.The word play is there and John Brownjohn once again does stirling work with his translation but alas what little plot there is is stretched very thin so instead we get several lengthy essays on Bookholm culture; the result is well written but ultimately far too long and boring. One can only hope this a blip and the next book is back his usual high standards.Reader beware: This is basically half of an unfinished book which the author was somehow forced to publish by his publishing company. This is even written at the end of the book in an authors note.Disgraceful, definitely the weakest of the Walter Moers books. I've read them all twice now except for this one which I shan't revisit unless the sequel requires it.this book was in brilliant condition,other than a few library stamps,looked like it had never been read.my son very much enjoyed reading.I love Walter Moers, he is one of my favorite writers.And this book was as great as it always is, except...it was only half a book, or 1/4th of a book.The book suddenly ends just when the story takes off, leaving you with only a short remark from the writer,excusing himself, and saying that this was only the introduction to the real story. Seriously?An entire book to only make an introduction? Doesn't seem right...
