The plot of the “Looking Glass Wars” is the idea that wonderland is real, and that the story Alice in Wonderland does in fact have a grain of truth. Set in the 1860’s the book is about Alyss or Alice as she is know in our world. Alyss is thrown out of wonderland along with her body guard Hatter by her evil Aunt Redd, When Redd took over wonderland and killed Alyss’s Mother the queen of wonderland. Alyss is than thrust into our world with nothing but the cloths on her back.
The “Looking Glass Wars” really gripped me, because it told one of the most famous stories and added a new element. It twisted the story of Wonderland into a new shape, changing characters and change what we know of Alice and fashioning a new Alice.
The Character’s each have their own piece to add to this intricate story, each of them affecting the story, in their own way. Each of the characters had their own original personality; there was none of the stock standard fantasy heroes or villains.
The area that the “Looking Glass Wars” was set in and around, was beautiful explained and instantly put an image in my mind. This allowed the reader to take the most out of the book, while still have the purpose to keep on reading.
The “Looking Glass Wars”, gives the reader, the chance to look at wonderland another way. The story also incorporates modern history and famous people and places and uses them as focal points for his story.
All in all I have to say that this story is one of the best I have ever read.
