Looking Glass Wars
The Looking Glass Wars series is a well known fantasy novel series written by one of the noteworthy authors from The United States named Frank Beddor. This series is inspired by the books, Through the Looking Glass and Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. It is comprised of a total of 4 books, which were released between the years 2004 and 2009. Author Beddor says that the basic premise of this series is that Carroll’s 2 books seem as distortions to the true stories described in them. The books in the series feature a number of twists from the actual story. Author Beddor first wrote the series in the form of a trilogy, the first book of which has the same name as the series. Its tremendous success enabled it to go through a development in various fields. One of those developments is a comical spin off book series titled as Hatter M. The original book was first released in the year 2004 in the UK and then in 2006 in the US. In many of his interviews, author Beddor has claimed that he got the idea to write the book when he saw an incomplete card deck on display in the British Museum, as part of ancient pack of cards. The images that he saw on the cards resembled the characters of Wonderland. Even the cards seemed to glow with an unusual illumination. Later, Beddor met with a collector of playing cards who claimed that the cards missing from the display are in his possession and then he told an exciting story related to the cards. And with the help of the recording of the story, author Beddor wrote down the first book.
