silhouette_astra 's review for:
Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore
by Robin Sloan
This is the best book I've read in a long, long time. There is so much to love about the story, the characters, the mystery... Sloan's unique voice, mixed with in a little John Green-esque relatable characters, witty dialogue, and the successful 21st century Indiana Jones chase for lost relics... Holy sh*t, it's a perfect recipe for me to love it... but then he adds in the art and maker-driven subplot and ultimate result? AHH. I love it.
I'm now waiting for its sequel, and will immediately dive into Ajax Penumbra's namesake prequel.
Do yourself a favor and read this book. You won't be sorry.
