Back in Swindon, the government is reporting a dangerously high stupidity surplus, the Stiltonista Cheese Mafia is causing trouble for Thursday and the literary detective scene isn’t quite what it used to be. And Thursday shoulders the burden for the Acme carpet business, which is both a front for SpecOps and a real business for the underemployed.
At home, Thursday’s idle sixteen-year-old son would rather sleep all day than follow his destiny as a member of the ChronoGaurd, the force that regulates time travel, and save the world from imminent destruction. And when things get really bad – reality book shows look set to transplant reality TV shows, and Goliath invents a transfictional tourist bus – Thursday must once again have her wits about her as she travels to the very limits of acceptable narrative possibilities to rescue the reading experience from almost certain destruction. She captains the ship Moral Dilemma, fends off vicious Mrs. Danvers clones, dispenses with a so-so Thursday Next novel called The Samuel Pepys Fiasco and faces down her most vicious enemy yet: herself.
The famous literary detective once again makes the world safe for fiction in Jasper Fforde’s gloriously outlandish and clever new installment of the celebrated series. | | Books | All my books are all available on www.amazon.com | | Heroes | Miss Haversham |

About me:
Fourteen years after she pegged out at the 1988 SuperHoop (in Something Rotten), Thursday Next is grappling with a host of new problems in the BookWorld: a recalcitrant new apprentice, the death of Sherlock Holmes and the inexplicable departure of comedy from the once-hilarious Thomas Hardy novels. The Council of Genres is trying to broker a deal between certain antagonistic genres: Racy Novel has been recklessly placed between Ecclesiastical and Feminist, and they are all at each other’s throats.
