I just finished listening to this in the car. I love Jasper Fforde's books and he signed my copy of this book last year in Surrey. I love Thursday Next and the Dragonslayer series and liked the Nursery Rhyme series. I have read both that this is a trilogy and it isn't, regardless it is good and a prequel is coming out next year.

Very slow start but as I was immersed into the world and the plot started moving, I became pretty engrossed in the story.

I really wasn’t sure about this book in the first couple chapters, but it had me by the end. So wholly unique and bizarre and I loved it all.
