Meggie e suo padre Mo hanno il dono di far vivere le parole: ciò che leggono a voce alta, semplicemente, accade. Ma da quando loro stessi sono entrati nel "Mondo d'inchiostro", sono rimasti coinvolti fino al collo nelle vite, nelle emozioni e negli inganni di questo magico universo parallelo. Incendi di villaggi ed esecuzioni di innocenti avvelenano un mondo in cui dovrebbero danzare le fate e nuotare le ninfe, e Mo è costretto a dividersi tra i giorni sereni con sua moglie e sua figlia e le notti insanguinate al fianco del Principe Nero, passate a combattere gli sgherri.

Portare nella vita reale i personaggi di un libro o addirittura entrare nel libro che stiamo leggendo: un sogno, che il padre di Meggie sa realizzare grazie al suo meraviglioso talento.

Ma quando Meggie decide di aiutare l'amico Farid a ritrovare il suo maestro tuffa insieme a lui nel mondo d'inchiostro, le parole dei libri si rivelano una terribile trappola. Amici, amori, fughe, incendi, duelli e scambi di persona in un romanzo indimenticabile.

Meggie ama i libri. E li ama moltissimo anche il padre Mo, che però rifiuta di leggerli a voce alta. Se lo facesse, infatti, porterebbe la vita nei libri e i personaggi dei libri alla vita. In una notte crudele lesse "Cuore d'inchiostro" e un malvagio signore dal cuore nero, Capricorno, si liberò dai lacci delle parole per materializzarsi nel suo salotto. In quell'attimo fatale accadde anche qualcosa di più grave: la moglie di Mo scomparve per sempre tra le pagine del libro. E ora il perfido Capricorno cerca Mo per piegare i suoi poteri a perfidi scopi.
