Inkheart (original title: Tintenherz) is a young adult-child fantasy novel by Cornelia Funke, and the first book of the Inkworld trilogy.

Inkheart follows the adventures of a 12-year-old girl named Meggie Folchart whose life changes dramatically when she discovers that her father, a bookbinder named Mortimer (Mo), has an unusual ability; when he reads aloud, he can bring characters and items from books into the real world. When Meggie was three years old, Mo read a book called Inkheart aloud to her mother. In an instant, Meggie's mother (and two cats) vanished into the Inkworld and three men from the novel (two of whom are murderous villains) entered into the real world. Nine years later, these men have come back into their lives and Meggie's and Mo's lives will never be the same. The sequel, Inkspell, was released on October 1, 2005, and the third book in the trilogy, Inkdeath was released on September 28, 2007 in Germany, Canada, and USA.

Mortimer (Mo) Folchart is a bookbinder and has the rare gift of reading things and characters out of and into books while reading aloud; however, he does not have control over what goes in or out. One night, he read a book called Inkheart to his wife, Resa. Mo accidentally read Resa into Inkheart and read some evil and cruel characters out of Inkheart (Capricorn, Basta, Dustfinger). Their daughter Meggie, who was three at the time, has no memory of this. Nine years later, Meggie saw someone waiting for Mo, on their doorstep. She informed Mo, who let the "stranger" (Dustfinger) in. The "stranger" stayed for a long time. Meggie eavesdropped and thought that Dustfinger/the stranger was warning Mo about something.

The next morning, Meggie was woken up by her father. He told her that they were going to see her aunt Elinor, from her mother's side. Elinor doesn't like children, but Mo told Meggie that she and her aunt should get along well because they both love books. After breakfast, Meggie went into her room to pack a few books to bring with her and discovered Inkheart, the book in brown paper binding, that her father suspiciously refused to talk about and snapped at her when she tried to find out more. They set off to Elinor's house in the van and Dustfinger hitched a lift with them. Soon Meggie realised that her father was keeping her in the dark, so she asked Dustfinger, and he describes Capricorn as a person who would take immense joy out of seeing a cat eating a bird.
