Praise for Jasper Fforde : Once again, Fforde brings together modern and classical literary characters, scientific heroes and pop-cultural references to create another Thursday Next tour de force ... Fforde has once again given birth to a read that will astound, amaze and amuse - regardless of gender or age. Herald Sun on THE WOMAN WHO DIED A LOT 'Reading a Fforde novel feels like taking off on a magic carpet, only to be picked up by another and another and taken on new flights of fantasy ... When the plot is thundering along, peppered with jokes, lively dialogue and silly names ... you just sit back and enjoy the ride.' Scotsman 'Jam packed with ingeniously witty ideas' SFX.co.uk A riot of puns, in-jokes and literary allusions that Fforde carries off with aplomb Daily Mail 'Fans of the late Douglas Adams, or, even, Monty Python, will feel at home with Fforde' Herald 'Forget all the rules of time, space and reality; just sit back and enjoy the adventure.' Sunday Telegraph You won't be disappointed Euro Crime Hugely funny and gloriously imaginative Daily Express
Reseña del editor:
The BookWorld's leading enforcement officer Thursday Next is four months into an enforced semi-retirement following an assassination attempt. She returns home to Swindon for what you'd expect to be a time of recuperation. If only life were that simple. Thursday is faced with an array of family problems - son Friday's lack of focus since his career in the Chronoguard was relegated to a might-have-been, daughter Tuesday's difficulty perfecting the Anti-Smote shield needed to thwart an angry Deity's promise to wipe Swindon off the face of the earth, and Jenny, who doesn't exist. And that's not all. With Goliath attempting to replace Thursday at every opportunity with synthetic Thursdays, the prediction that Friday's Destiny-Aware colleagues will die in mysterious circumstances, and a looming meteorite that could destroy all human life on earth, Thursday's retirement is going to be anything but easy.
