This is the last in the series so far. It does a pretty big jump in time, and we now have Thursday with grown up children and a cover job as a carpet company, while also secretly doing her old work -- in both SO-27 and Jurisfiction. The series continues to be freaking clever, old references cleverly link up, and there is hilarity when Thursday meets her fictional selves.
The levels of messing-with-your-brain that occur when you think about the fact that the Thursday who narrates the books thinks her world is real. Or is it just me that likes to think sometimes about how weird it'd be if we were book characters?
I don't know how fun the series will be without the time travel, but I'm kind of waving a little flag for more of Spike Stoker.
Now excuse me while I slink off to write crossover ideas for this series and every other book I've ever read.
