Within Funke's book trilogy it is never made clear, which language Inkheart is written in and which language the characters are speaking. He always had this gift and used it all his life for fun, until one night, when he read Inkheart to his wife, Meggie's mother. Only when Mo is kidnapped by Capricorn and Elinor and Meggie are kidnapped after attempting to rescue him, Mo finally explains, that he has an extraordinary gift which got him into this situation: When he reads books aloud, he can make objects and people from the fictional worlds of the stories literally come alive, transporting them into his world. She only knows, that Inkheart is somehow connected to her mother's disappearance In the first part of the book, when it's told mostly through Meggie's eyes, it remains a complete mystery what kind of book Inkheart is, why Capricorn is after destroying it so obsessively. Within the fictional world of Funke's novel, Inkheart is a book that has become a mystery, because almost all of its copies have been stolen or destroyed some other way, usually by fire.
