About The Immune System: A Dewey Decimal Novel (Dewey Decimal, Book 3) (Unabridged)

This “unique and memorable” blend of futuristic dystopia and dark detective story features “one of the more offbeat characters in fiction” ( Booklist ). In this “uncannily original” series, the man known as Dewey Decimal works in a near-future Manhattan decimated by terrorism and plague, running dirty operations for the crooked Senator Howard - though he’d prefer to spend his time among the stacks at his beloved New York Public Library (Laura Lippman). When Dewey is tasked with disrupting unrest from a growing group of outcast civilians, and simultaneously given the assignment of protecting a pair of Saudi royals, he is forced to look within and make some impossible choices - and it will put him at odds with his benefactor and the powers that be.... “A good time for fans of the likes of Charlie Huston and Charles Stross.” ( Kirkus Reviews ) “Dewey is an unlikely hero, a gimpy, smart-mouthed loner, obsessed with a brand-name hand sanitizer. His indomitable spirit and his distinctive ghetto-infused, educated patter give Larson’s series its unique and spicy character.” ( Publishers Weekly ) “One of the finest (and weirdest) thriller trilogies ever.” ( Mystery Scene )
