The Looking Glass Wars is not really different from what I had expected. It is a well-constructed retelling, that places Alice as the Queen of Hearts' daughter and consequently the next-in-line for Wonderland's throne. When the evil Red Queen, Queen Genevieve's sister, attacks the palace with her ar...

I love this book! It is one of my all time favorites! I've always loved the story of Through the Looking Glass and Frank Beddor takes that idea and creatively twists it to create his own new world!
