    Early Riser

    by Jasper Fforde

    Every winter, the human population hibernates. During those bitterly cold four months, Charlie Worthing becomes part of the committed but mildly unhinged group of misfits who are responsible for ensuring the hibernatory safe passage of the sleeping masses. However, Charlie must avoid the Villains and their penchant for murder, the Nightwalkers, whose thirst for human flesh can only be satisfied by comfort food; and sidestep the increasingly less-than-mythical WinterVolk.
