Publisher Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In the sixth novel of the renowned Thursday Next series, “geeky humor jostles with genuine insight” (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) as Thursday embarks on another adventure in her alternate reality of literature-obsessed England.

[One of Our Thursdays Is Missing] is jam-packed with spot-on parody, puns, and wry observations about words and genres that will delight literary-minded fans.”—Los Angeles Times
 
Thursday Next is back! . . . Or at least one of her is.

It is a time of unrest in the BookWorld. Only ace literary detective Thursday Next can avert a devastating genre war. Then, a week before the peace talks, Thursday vanishes.
 
But all is not yet lost. Living at the quiet end of speculative fiction is the written Thursday Next, who labors to keep her own small series from the grim specter of being remaindered. Now she must answer the call, save the BookWorld, evade capture, and find the actual Thursday! With her clockwork butler Sprockett and her Designated Love Interest Whitby Jet in tow, written Thursday reluctantly agrees to undertake an investigation for Jurisfiction—only to realize that she must journey up the mysterious Metaphoric River and visit the RealWorld to find the answers.

An interesting twist

Not Fforde's finest work, but a solid and interesting evolution of the Thursday Next series, setting us up for what promises to be an exciting Next (and final?) episode in The Woman Who Died a Lot.

Like fission on a paper sandwich

Mr Fford has managed to hit me hard on the creative, witty, and hysterical lobes. I am re-reading it. It is wildly entertaining.

Stellar!

Excellent continuation of the series — highly recommended!
