Opis

In a world where winter means hibernation for most of the population, life takes a quirky twist as people drift into slumber for four long months. Jasper Fforde introduces a whimsical yet thought-provoking society where staying awake becomes an unusual challenge. Amidst all the snoozing, characters navigate a landscape filled with bizarre twists, odd jobs, and even a few mystery elements that keep the energy alive, despite the surrounding sleepiness.

As the story unfolds, readers follow the adventures of those who dare to remain awake, revealing their unique struggles and the downright hilarious situations that arise in this alternate reality. Fforde’s signature humor and sharp wit shine through, creating a vibrant tapestry where warmth meets absurdity, making the whole experience both entertaining and deeply engaging.

I only got Early Riser as a stopgap between Shades of Grey 1 & 2 (still waiting for 2...), and didn't know what to expect. I really don't like reading spoilers before starting a book or film or tv series, so only knew it was about humans hibernating as the norm over winter and that was about it. As I got further into the story I knew I was going to enjoy it, and I did. Fforde's wit shines through, and I love the references to things outside of the specific universe he built here, and the nun's names are brilliant!Definitely on my 'to read again' list.
