Great Britain circa 1985: time travel is routine, cloning is reality (dodos are the resurrected pet of choice), and literature is taken very, very seriously. Based on an imaginary world where time and reality bend in the most convincing and original way since Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Eyre Affair is a delightful rabbit hole of a read: once you fall in you may never come back. England is a virtual police state where someone has begun kidnapping characters from works of literature. When this madman plucks Jane Eyre from the pages of Bronte's novel, Thursday Next -- our resourceful heroine and renowned Special Operative in literary detection -- faces the challenge of her career. She must track down the world's Third Most Wanted criminal and enter the novel herself to avert a heinous act of literary homicide. Suspenseful and outlandish, absorbing and fun, The Eyre Affair is a caper unlike any other, and an introduction to the imagination of a most distinctive writer and his singular fictional universe.
