First Among Sequels (Thursday Next, Bk 5)
abaisse avatar reviewed on + 21 more book reviews


The fifth book in the literary detective series didn't get off to quite as rollicking a start as the last three, and Fforde's prose seems just the tiniest bit lazy compared to his usual acrobatic style, but we do get to learn more about the BookWorld, and by the end of the novel, I found myself just as riveted as I have with his previous works. If you're already a Thursday Next fan, add this book to your pile.
