Ajax Penumbra 1969 by Robin Sloan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is the prequel to Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore. You don't have to read it first. I didn't. In fact, it may be better if you didn't. I could see it spoiling a bit of the mystery of Mr. Penumbra. If you are like me and really loved that book, you will surely want to read this one. It won't unlock the secrets of the universe, but it will extend the story just a bit longer for those that weren't ready to let go just yet.
So why four stars instead of five? Because I am a bit pouty that this book was sooooo short. I'm not quite ready to admit it is over.
