Enter the first five novels in the New York Times bestselling Thursday Next series—over one million copies in print!—and follow literary detective Thursday Next as she adventures through her alternate reality of literature-obsessed England.
“What keeps this series humming is Fforde’s lively engagement with books and the indefatigable woman he’s created to defend them.”—People
“It’s easy to be delighted by a writer who loves books so madly.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times
The Eyre Affair: Hailed by the Wall Street Journal as “delightfully clever,” this riotous novel follows Detective Thursday Next as she tracks down the villain who plucked Jane Eyre from the pages of Brontë’s novel—and averts a heinous act of literary homicide.
Lost in a Good Book: Thursday fights to save the love of her life, navigating the works of Kafka and Austen and even Beatrix Potter’s The Tale of Flopsy Bunnies. But when she discovers a new play from the Bard himself and finds herself the target of a series of potentially lethal coincidences, she realizes the stakes are far higher than she could have predicted.
The Well of Lost Plots: Thursday is ready for a break. She heads to the depths of the Well of Lost Plots, where all unpublished books reside, to lose herself in a cliché-ridden pulp mystery. What was supposed to be a well-deserved reprieve turns into chaos as Thursday discovers the Well’s dark underbelly, a veritable linguistic free-for-all. To top it off, a murderer is stalking Jurisfiction personnel and nobody is safe—least of all Thursday.
Something Rotten: It’s back to reality for Thursday—and fiction never looked so good. But as she travels with the dithering Danish prince Hamlet, she becomes wrapped up in an outlaw fictioneer’s plot for absolute power. Can Thursday find a Shakespeare clone to stop this hostile takeover?
First Among Sequels: Thursday grapples with a host of problems in the Book World, but her biggest challenge is motivating her sixteen-year-old son, Friday, to follow his destiny as a member of the ChronoGuard. As she juggles the trials of motherhood and saving the Book World, Thursday finds she must face down her most vicious enemy yet: herself.
