Has anyone read the Looking Glass Wars? It's a trilogy by Frank Beddor. They're such great books and I want to make everyone read them

What's it about?

Here's the summary on the back of the first book (it explains it better than I can):

The Myth:
Alice Liddel was an ordinary girl who stepped through the looking glass and entered a fairy-tale world invented by Lewis Carroll in his famous storybook.
The Truth:
Wonderland is real. Alyss Heart is the heir to the throne, until her murderous aunt Redd steals the crown and kills Alyss's parents. To escape Redd, Alyss and her bodyguard, Hatter Madigan, must flee to our world through the Pool of Tears. But in the pool Alyss and Hatter are separated. Lost and alone in Victorian London, Alyss is befriended by an aspiring author, to whom she tells the violent, heartbreaking story of her young life. Yet he gets the story all wrong. Hatter Madigan knows the truth only too well, and he is searching every corner of our world to find the lost princess and return her to Wonderland so she may battle Redd for her rightful place as the Queen of Hearts.

The trilogy follows the war between Alyss and Redd. Admittedly, the third book is a little slow, but the first two books are great and the overall story is great, too

Sounds interesting! I might give it a try.

Sweet

very good books!
