Arch Enemy Summary

The Heart Crystal's power has been depleted, and Imagination along with it. The people of Wonderland have all lost their creative drive, and most alarmingly, even Queen Alyss is without her powers. There is some comfort in the fact that the vicious Redd Heart seems to be similarly disabled. Amazingly, she is attempting to team up with her enemy, Alyss, in order to reclaim Wonderland from King Arch. Alyss might have no choice but to accept Redd's overtures, especially when she begins to receive alarming advice from the caterpillar oracles.

Arch Enemy
Awesome better get it from the library ;)

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Nick Pouliot
Arch Enemy was EXCELLENT!
The first book started the series out strong, and the second book added depth to a lot of characters, as well as introducing a few. The third book ties it all up well as well as adding to the Caterpillar Oracle's characters. I loved this book the best of all three, with the second one coming up... well, second! The first book stayed a little too long in London with "Alice", and that bored me a little bit, but when she comes back, it picks up fast.

You should create another series book, perhaps using something supernatural as a basis?

Frank Beddor Author Biography

Frank Beddor had already had a couple of intense careers, a professional skier (two-time freestyle world champion) and filmmaker (producer of the 1998 hit There’s Something About Mary) before deciding to become an author (of the New York Times best sellers The Looking Glass Wars, Seeing Redd, and Arch Enemy of the Looking Glass Wars trilogy).

After the global success of There’s Something About Mary, he formed Automatic Pictures, over which he still presides, to develop creative properties. “After ‘Mary’ I put a bunch of projects into development,” he says. “At the same time, though, I was coming to realize that, as a producer, you’re a facilitator for the creative team, but what I really...
