Red Side Story

Fans of Fforde's amazingly original Shades of Grey have been waiting almost 15 years for the sequel< Red Side Story. It was worth the wait.

Fforde continues the story of Eddie Russett and Jane Grey as they navigate a society where your place, occupations, and who you can marry depend on what color you can see. Eddie and Jane are determined to ignore the many rules of their world and discover how it came to be.

I find the concept of a world organized by color fascinating, and I really loved all the strange creatures and plants Fforde created.
