Über diesen Titel

The long-awaited sequel to Jasper Fforde's cult bestseller Shades of Grey, set in world where social hierarchy revolves entirely around visual colour.

Imagine a world where your position in society depended on what bit of the colour spectrum you could see. This is the world inhabited by Eddie Russett (red, middle-level) and Jane Grey (monochromatic, lowest in society). Eddie and Jane must negotiate the delicate Chromatic politics of society to find out what the 'Something that Happened' actually was, how society got to be this way, and crucially, is there Somewhere Else beyond their borders - and if there is, could there be Someone Else, too, someone whose unseen hand has been guiding the fortunes and misfortunes of the nation for the past 500 years?

It's a tale of a young couple's thirst for justice and answers in an implacably rigid society, where the prisoners are also the guards, and cages of convention bind the citizens to only one way of thinking - or suffer the consequences....

Great story, well read. I hope this does NOT get made into a Netflix series.

Convincing sequel

We waited so long and I am glad it was worth it.
I hope Jasper Fforde knows we like and appreciate him the way he is and never doubts himself again.

Finally!

I‘ve waited for this book well over a decade and wasn’t prepared to say: it was worth it!

After re-reading Shades of Grey last week to directly continue with Red Side Story (on Audiobook), I felt the narrative voice is quite consistent: I loved the wittiness and uncovering lots of twists and turns.
The last sentences made me smile and even left me with a teary eye, but most of all - I WANT TO KNOW THE REST OF THE STORY!!! … I hope it doesn’t take another decade :)

Worth the wait!

Fantastic world building, a truly dystopic society, suspence-loaded until the end. Loved it! I am afraid of book 3 because book wrapped it up so nicely.

Brave. new wold
