A Maxim Jakubowski selected title.
Humour writer Fforde was one of the first to cross the borderlines between crime and fantasy with his wonderful Thursday Next novels which plunged its delighful sleuthette into the world of books as parallel reality and the Nursery Crimes books. This volume is the final one in his young adult Dragonslayer series, full of wizards, enterprise and toil, and evokes a more grown up J.K. Rowling. Vastly entertaining and a perfect introduction for younger readers to his decidedly quirky mind, as well as a lesson into creating a new fictional universe. Fforde will be at Crimefest to discuss his more criminal efforts.
