A Wind in The Door

A Wind in the Door, the second book in the A Wrinkle in Time series, by Madeleine L'engle, has 240 pages. It is an exiting novel about Meg, Calvin, a sick Charles Wallace, the Echthroi, ( Nothingness filled up just enough with hatred, that that is what it entirely becomes. Still a vacuum, an emptiness, a lack of matter in space, but that which hates, and is determined to X, or distroy all life,) and three new characters: Proginoskes, a cherubim of both wings and eyes; Blajeny, a tall Teacher of the Names of everything; and a snake, Luise the Larger,( another Teacher.) Together, all of them accept the powerful Echthroi and Charles Wallace, have to go INSIDE one of Charles Wallace's Mitochondion, one named Yadah, INSIDE one of Charles Wallace's cells, to defeat the Echthroi that have almost succeded in Xing him. They finally are all, including himself, able to sacrifice Proginoskes's life to save Charles Wallace's. I found it kind of sad.
 JUST A TINY BIT THOUGH!
