I wanted to like Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore more than I did, but it was pretty enjoyable overall. There were moments that were a bit over my head when it came to technology. I would consider it a book for the book/technology nerd mixed with workings of the Di Vinci Code.
After being laid off at work Clay finds himself settling for any job, which just happens to be the night shift at Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore. As time passes he realizes that the bookstore may just be a front for some other business, especially since the same few customers come to the store to check out books from a partciular part of the store. He begins to make the bookstore into a 3-D computer model including the patrons and the books that they check out. When doing so he realizes he has actually broken a code in figuring out what the store is all about, and leads him to a underground secret society.
