Jennifer Strange — administrator of the agency, where there are 52 wizards. The action takes place in Kingdom, where people are at war with the trolls and trying to get land left over after the death of the #dragon. And of course there's #magic. However, mages aren't the ones that in the old glorious days, because the magical field is weakening from year to year. Because of this, sorcerers are forced to go to work.

Racing through this one because a) it‘s good and b) the library has a huge waitlist so I can‘t renew it! Love Fforde‘s books! #jasperfforde #librarybook
Humorous reread 😂😂😂 I appreciate Fforde‘s irreverent humor.

Since I like Hearne‘s Iron Druid series and Dawson‘s work as Lila Bowen, this piqued my interest. This collaboration between them is making me LOL out loud. Fun book to read so far. Reminds me of the styles of Terry Pratchett, Jasper Fforde, and Simon Green.

LOOK WHAT ARRIVED TODAY!!! (I pre-ordered the UK edition because I couldn‘t wait until the US 2019 release—best purchase decision of the year so far!)
On a related note, does anyone want to babysit my 11-week-old so I can actually read this? #earlyriser #jasperfforde #favoriteauthor #booksbooksbooks
Used book hauls are my favorite ❤️
