09.13: Jasper Fforde
2013-08-22 21:36:31| Powells Books Events Calendar
Jasper Fforde returns to the witty, wizardly world of The Chronicles of Kazam with The Song of the Quarkbeast (HMH Books for Young Readers), the fabulous follow-up to The Last Dragonslayer. In an alternate United Kingdom, King Snodd aims to control the world by controlling magic, and only 16-year-old Jennifer Strange, acting manager of an employment agency for sorcerers, stands between Snodd and his plans. Also published in time for this event is The Woman Who Died a Lot (Penguin), the seventh book in Fforde's beloved Thursday Next series. When her former SpecOps division is reinstated, Thursday assumes she's the obvious choice to lead the Literary Detectives. Instead, she's put in charge of the Swindon All-You-Can-Eat-at-Fatso's Drink Not Included Library. But where Thursday goes, trouble follows.
