I finished "The Last Dragonslayer" on Sunday. Fforde took a while for worldbuilding and character introduction. Some common themes, like ConStuff, are familiar from other series. I did like the way Fforde resolved the book, although when he was tying up the threads the one centered on the Monday after seems to have slipped out of the bundle. How's that for not spoilering?

This is billed as a young adult novel and does read easier than Fforde's other novels. I must say I was surprised by the strong dystopian tendencies, but maybe the dark brush strokes will make a lasting impression.

41. Jasper Fforde "The Last Dragonslayer"
