The newest tour de force from The New York Times
bestselling author of Thursday Next and Shades of
Grey.
Jasper Fforde's exuberant return to
the fantastical BookWorld opens during a time of great
unrest. All-out Genre war is rumbling, and the BookWorld
desperately needs a heroine like Thursday Next. But with the
real Thursday apparently retired to the Realworld, the
Council of Genres turns to the written Thursday.
The Council wants her to pretend to be the real Thursday and
travel as a peacekeeping emissary to the warring factions. A
trip up the mighty Metaphoric River beckons-a trip that will
reveal a fiendish plot that threatens the very fabric of the
BookWorld itself.
Once again New York Times
bestselling author Jasper Fforde has a field day gleefully
blending satire, romance, and thriller with literary
allusions galore in a fantastic adventure through the
landscape of a frisky and fertile imagination. Fans will
rejoice that their favorite character in the Fforde universe
is back.
