Synopsis
Princess Sylvie and her fellow fairy-tale characters can't believe it when the storybook they are a part of becomes a smash hit bestseller. They have to rush to get their place in the story every time a new reader - whether in London or Lithuania - opens the book. It's wonderful to feel popular again, and soon the story is even uploaded to the Wed. For fictional characters it's a weightless, 'virtual' world of unforeseen challenges, and they cope as best they can. But when words get changed round and whole scenes start to disappear, Sylvie realises that their electronic world is in danger of destruction. Soon, she and her friends launch themselves into the labyrinth of cyberspace to confront a modern-day evil in its online lair... Inventive, imaginative and intriguing, this is the dazzling sequel to ' The Great Good Thing'.

Synopsis
What a relief when the old storybook is republished and the characters who live inside it suddenly discover they have Readers again - lots of Readers - especially when the book is loaded on to the Web. The endless reading exhausts the characters - but that's nothing to the problems they face as strange things start happening. Words get changed around, scenes disappear - and Sylvie and her friends must launch themselves into the labyrinth of cyberspace to confront a twenty-first century evil that threatens to destroy their world.
