Robin Sloan

Robin Sloan is an American best-selling author. His debut novel, Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore is about a laid-off Silicon Valley tech worker who begins working at a dusty bookstore with very few customers, only to start discovering one secret after another. The mysterious old books, along with the store's owner, lead to a 500‑year‑old secret society. He graduated from Athens High School in Troy, Michigan in 1998 and went to school at Michigan State University, where he studied economics and co-founded a literary magazine called Oats.
