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. 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. The Council wants her to pretend to be the real Thursday and travel as a peacekeeping emissary to the warring factions. But with the real Thursday apparently retired to the Realworld, the Council of Genres turns to the written Thursday. All-out Genre war is rumbling, and the BookWorld desperately needs a heroine like Thursday Next. Jasper Fforde's exuberant return to the fantastical BookWorld opens during a time of great unrest. The newest tour de force from The New York Times bestselling author of Thursday Next and Shades of Grey.
