6) The Eyre Affair, Jasper Fjorde

Book the sixth - The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fjorde.

Rating:
4.5/5

Review:
This book is the first in Jasper Fjorde's series concerning Thursday Next, heat-packing Literatec (think Mathnet, but for books) in alternate-reality England, circa 1985. All is somewhat quiet in the office of London's SpecOps Literatec division, until a rare Dickens manuscript is stolen and the characters within it start getting murdered!

This book is definitely more enjoyable if you have a grasp on literature (read: if you were a Lit major and payed VERY CLOSE ATTENTION in all of your classes). For the rest of us, it is still supremely entertaining, and I can't wait to read the next one!
