First Among Sequels - A Bookworld Novel

Humorous literary sleuth saves BookWorld again.

If you've enjoyed Thursday Next's earlier escapades, "First Among Sequels" won't disappoint. Jasper Fforde continues to blend wit, literary allusion, and a wild sense of fun that'll satisfy your craving for an unconventional and cleverly constructed read. When the lines between fiction and reality blur, Thursday's newest adventure promises laughter and suspense in equal measure. Perfect for those who love their mysteries with a hefty dose of literary charm.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Thursday Next is back. And this time it's personal... Literary Detective Thursday Next is officially off the case. Once a key figure in the BookWorld police force, she is concentrating on her duties as wife and mother. Or so her husband thinks... Unofficially, Thursday is working as hard as ever - and in this world of dangerously short attention spans, there's no rest for the literate. Can Thursday stop Pride and Prejudice being turned into a vote-em-off reality book? Who killed Sherlock Holmes? And will Thursday get her teenage son out of bed in time for him to save the world?
