Fforde has shaken up genres-fantasy, comedy, crime, sci-fi, parody, literary criticism-and come up with a superb mishmash.-The Miami HeraldFourteen years after she pegged out at the 1988 SuperHoop, Thursday Next is grappling with a host of problems in the Book World: a recalcitrant new apprentice, the death of Sherlock Holmes, and the inexplicable departure of comedy from the once-hilarious Thomas Hardy novels.
