The Land of Stories #2 The Enchantress Returns

This was the second book to the Land of Stories Series. It has been a year since the twins have been back to the land of stories and they are anxious to return. The fairy tale land is having it's own problems. The enchantress is back, the stepmother to sleeping beauty, and is trying to take over the world. The fairy godmother puts the twins under protection after their mother is kidnapped by the enchantress. The leave and go to their granny's cottage to find a portal to go there and rescue her. They are reunited with old friends at Little Red Riding Hood's castle. Everyone is in a panic because they don't know what to do.
      The twins discover the Wand of Wonderment. They think it will help defeat the enchantress. They need to collect the 6 most prized possessions of the 6 most hated people in the fairytale world. The Ice Queen (scepter), the Evil Queen (the magic mirror ), the Giant (harp), the Sea Witch (jewels), the Wicked Stepmother (marriage ring), and the Enchantress (pride). They team up and build a flying boat and go on the quest. They encounter many things along the way. They receive some help from a ghost and find out that she is trying not just to rule the fairy tale world but also the twins world. She will accomplish this by conquering the 7 deadly sins and the world's past, present, and future. She imprisoned her former lovers for lust, stripes people's happiness for envy, controls Rumplestiltskin for sloth, takes over the worth with greed and gluttony, and the world is exposed to her wrath which satisfies her pride. She destroys historical landmarks conquering the past, wants the kings and queens to hand over their kingdoms for the present, and stole Cinderella's baby and the heir to a throne of magic, which I am not going to spoil that, for the future. They defeat the enchantress and save the world. Then their mom finally gets purposed to by Dr. Bob. There is another ending besides the defeating of the enchantress but it would spoil the book so I am not gonna write about it. Overall another amazing read!
