The Well of Lost Plots

Fforde is a true original * Sunday Express on Lost in a Good Book * Douglas Adams would be proud * Scotsman on Lost in a Good Book * An immensely enjoyable, almost compulsive experience * New York Times on Lost in a Good Book * A book this self-conciously clever has no right being so much damned fun * SFX, 5* review, on The Well of Lost Plots * The third of this cult series sees Jasper Fforde hitting his stride ... should be a joy to anyone who loves reading * Time Out on The Well of Lost Plots * [Fforde's] brand of inspired lunacy truly stands on its own ... this new book completes his creation of a world of true literary comic genius * Sunday Express on The Well of Lost Plots * A born wordsmith of effervescent imagination * Christina Hardyment, Independent * Jasper Fforde has gone where no other fictioneer has gone before. Millions of readers now follow ... Thank you, Jasper * John Sutherland, Guardian * Supremely surreal. * South Wales Argus *
