A book about a mysterious bookshop - in this century? Is there anything new to tell about those? Turns out: yes and no.
It's a neat idea to combine (computer) science with a love of (physical) books. Sadly, it turns into Dan Brown for the middle part. And oh, the science! I cringed when the world's most powerful computers were set to work on the big problem, and the captain of the affair shouted for more power, and the engineer said he couldna take her any fasterr...
That's what it felt like to me. Seriously, some minimal research into ocr and cryptography and how algorithms work would have been appreciated.
Still, it's a book a mysterious bookshop, and I like those.
