Thursday Next, literary detective and newlywed, is back to embark on an adventure that begins, quite literally on her own doorstep. It seems that Landen, her husband of four weeks, actually drowned in an accident when he was two years old. Someone, somewhere, sometime, is responsible. The sinister Goliath Corporation wants its operative Jack Schitt out of the poem in which Thursday trapped him, and it will do almost anything to achieve this - but bribing the ChronoGuard? Is that possible?



Having barely caught her breath after The Eyre Affair, Thursday must battle corrupt politicians, try to save the world from extinction, and help the Neanderthals to species self-determination. Mastadon migrations, journeys into Just William, a chance meeting with the Flopsy Bunnies, and violent life-and-death struggles in the summer sales are all part of a greater plan.



But whose? and why?

Loved this book! Like the first, it is full of whit, fantastic pop culture references and humour. It has delved into new realms of fantasy and I cannot wait to see what happens next!

Better than the first?

Very cleverly done.

I have read all the Thursday Next stories and some of Jasper Ffordes other books, like the nursery crimes series. And thought it would be good to have them on talking book, the books themselves don’t disappoint. They are well read and nicely paced my only issue is the audio itself. It drops out on some chapters and sounds mufffled and soft almost as if it was a first draft and they forgot to re-do it.

Love these books
