The newest tour de force starring Thursday Next in the New York Times bestselling series
The Bookworld s leading enforcement officer, Thursday Next, has been forced into a semiretirement following an assassination attempt, returning home to Swindon and her family to recuperate.
But Thursday s children have problems that demand she become a mother of invention: Friday s career struggles in the Chronoguard, where he is relegated to a might-have-been; Tuesday s trouble perfecting the Anti-Smote shield, needed in time to thwart an angry Deity s promise to wipe Swindon off the face of the earth; and the issue of Thursday s third child, Jenny, who doesn t exist except as a confusing and disturbing memory.

But Thursday s children have problems that demand she become a mother of invention: Friday s career struggles in the Chronoguard, where he is relegated to a might-have-been; Tuesday s trouble perfecting the Anti-Smote shield, needed in time to thwart an angry Deity s promise to wipe Swindon off the face of the earth; and the issue of Thursday s third child, Jenny, who doesn t exist except as a confusing and disturbing memory.
With Goliath attempting to replace Thursday at every opportunity with synthetic Thursdays, and a call from the Bookworld to hunt down Pagerunners who have jumped into the Realworld, Thursday s convalescence is going to be anything but restful as the week ahead promises to be one of the Next family s oddest.
