One Book, One Community: Mr Penumbra's 24-hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan

For the 49 folks who bothered to vote, the selection was  "Mr Penumbra's 24-hour Bookstore" by Robin Sloan. Stay tuned to find out what events will be centered around the book.

Robin Sloan writes:
This is my first novel, and it grew from a story posted on this very website into a New York Times Best Seller published in more than twenty countries. 
It’s a tale of books and technology, cryptography and conspiracy, friendship and love. It begins in a mysterious San Francisco bookstore, but quickly reaches out into the wider world and the shadowed past. I talked about the ideas behind the book on NPR’s Morning Edition and had a real-life bibliophile adventure with the New York Times.
