Hi St...Jane, I agree. This new series excites me.<br /><br />Hi Stephanie, thanks for commenting. The premise of the book intrigues me and I like the plays on colour.<br /><br />Simon, there are usually at least a couple of new books a year that I am looking forward to but normally I don't buy a lot of new fiction and it has to be by a favourite author.<br /><br />Lizzy, glad to know that there's another Fforde fan.

I'm looking forward to the new Yann Martel and eventually the new Murakami novels.<br /><br />Yes, you must read Jasper Fforde!<br /><br />Annabel, it's the top of my wishlist!<br /><br />Verity, this is definitely the book I shall be breaking my book-buying ban for.<br /><br />Lezlie, I hope our wish is met and we both enjoy it!<br /><br />Hi vvb32, thanks for commenting. I enjoyed the play on words from the synopses.<br /><br />Hi Sakura, thanks for commenting. Inspired is the perfect description for Fforde; this new books sounds similarly inspired and intrigues me.<br /><br />Jackie, you read the first book in which series?
