The Well of Lost Plots

De: Jasper Fforde

Narrado por: Emily Gray

asper Fforde has done it again in this genre-bending blend of crime fiction, fantasy, and top-drawer literary entertainment. After two rollicking New York Times bestselling adventures through Western literature, resourceful literary detective Thursday Next definitely needs some downtime. And what better place for a respite than in the hidden depths of the Well of Lost Plots, where all unpublished books reside? But peace and quiet remain elusive for Thursday, who soon discovers that the Well is a veritable linguistic free-for-all, where grammasites run rampant, plot devices are hawked on the black market, and lousy books—like the one she has taken up residence in—are scrapped for salvage. To make matters worse, a murderer is stalking the personnel of Jurisfiction and it’s up to Thursday to save the day. A brilliant feat of literary showmanship filled with wit, fantasy, and effervescent originality, this Ffordian tour de force is the most exciting Thursday Next adventure yet.

Best Book Ever! Outstanding Narration

This was the first book of Jasper afford' that I've read. I couldn't listen fast enough! Truly deserving of all 5 stars in all 3 categories. Narration was phenomenal! Voices for all the characters made it easy to follow who was who. Story is ingenious! Can't wait for the next!

Fun and Adventure in Book World

What made the experience of listening to The Well of Lost Plots the most enjoyable?

Like all the Thursday Next books, the Well of Lost Plots is filled with humor, absurdity , intelligence, literary puns and literary references that are profoundly entertaining to anyone who loves books, words, and reading. The social commentary disguised as humor is brilliant.

I highly recommend this and all the Thursday Next books.

What about Emily Gray’s performance did you like?

Emily Gray brings a great deal of wit to her performance and gives life to a broad range of crazy characters. Her voice is lovely as well.

Great fun

An enjoyable journey in an alternate literary world full of interesting and likeable characters. This is the most imaginative and entertaining series-ever.

Listen again and again

This is a story that is so fun to listen to that I've listened over 5 times. The reader' performance is enjoyable and engaging.

Well done!

This third book in the Thursday Next series is my favorite so far. The characters are well written, the plot sustains interest all the way through. I didn’t want to put it down. I particularly enjoyed the readings from other well known classics. I can’t wait to read the fourth in the series!
