Welcome to the Jasper Fforde Website

The latest book to be published is Shades of Grey, which was published in January 02010 in both the US and the UK. There is a new site up; you can view it by clicking here.

If you want to know what's happening after that, it will be the sixth in the Thursday Next series One of Our Thursdays is Missing, details of which can be found here.

I am deep in writing at the moment but details of my upcoming events and talks can be found on my appearances page. News is posted on my What's New? page, and my entire site is indexed at Index Pages (Complex) , but almost everything can be reached by using the button bar above.

All my books come with a 'Special Features' section with a "Making Of" wordamentary and deleted scenes, and there is an all-new Cheese Enforcement website.

Other news: Goliath Merchandising is now selling new illustrations by Maggy Roberts as well as The Fourth Bear in paperback. So you can now buy my latest book, previous paperbacks, mugs and caps as well as new Acme, Jurisfiction, SpecOps, Toast, Porridge and other T Shirts at criminally low prices. German and French editions of Well of Lost Plots are now on sale in all good German and French bookshops and Lost in a Good book is available in Italian. See my bookshelf pages for all editions of my books

How to use this site: Explore, generally. At the top of the page are links that take you to the various sections of my site, and since the 'links bar' is at the top of almost every page, it's difficult to get lost. The links marked 'TN1, TN2,' etc, relate to my books, each with subindexes that point you the way to pages that apertain to that novel. The subindex marked 'More' is everything else I couldn't find a home for.

If you do get lost there is a Fforde Grand Central which is pretty easy to figure out, and an index for more in-depth browsing. All press releases and changes are on my what's new? page which is probably where you should go if you are a returning browser - all changes on the site are logged there.
