This is A Must Have For Any Cornelia Funke Fans !!! ~ A Beautiful Autographed First US Edition/First Printing for Collectors ~
Funke follows her foray into YA (Reckless) with a simultaneously creepy and romantic middle-grade ghost story that will please her legions of younger fans. Jon Whitcroft, now 19, recounts his momentous 11th year when, sent against his will to boarding school in Salisbury, England, he raises a dead knight from restless slumber, fights off a murderous ghost, and makes peace with his mother’s fiancé. Having been “the man around the house, uncontested hero to my sisters and apple of my mother’s eye,” until the arrival of his mother’s new boyfriend (dubbed “The Beard”), Jon is homesick and cranky about being “banished.” Those gripes are quickly forgotten when he is harassed by the ghost of a family enemy who has spent the centuries exacting revenge on Jon’s male ancestors. Jon is the next target until Ella, the prettiest girl in school and (conveniently) the granddaughter of the local ghost expert, comes to his aid.
CORNELIA FUNKE is Germany's bestselling children's author after J. K. Rowling and R. L. Stine. In the fall of 2002, she made her brilliant debut in the English language market with the release of The Thief Lord, the enchanting New York Times bestseller. She is also the author of the highly acclaimed novels Inkheart, Inkdeath, and Inkspell and the picture book The Princess Knight. Deeming her "a unique talent," Time magazine included Cornelia on its "Time 100," an annual list of the most influential people in the world. Cornelia currently lives with her family in Los Angeles, California, in a house full of books.
