A mix of thriller, fantasy, sci-fi in a crime/mystery plot with a healthy dose of humour and just plain silly - this 2nd book in the Thursday Next series is even better than the first one. The quirks of our lead character are extended from the first novel; and several new characters are introduced including the Cheshire Cat and other literary figures. Well worth reading for those who enjoy Terry Pratchett or Douglas Adams or even anyone interested in classical literature. If you're not familiar with "Great Expectations" and probably Poe's "The Raven", I'd suggest checking out Cole's notes (i.e. Wikipedia).
