36 Righteous Men
by Steven Pressfield
A detective thriller set in a climate-ravaged 2034 New York built on the Jewish legend of the 36 hidden righteous who sustain the world. An odd, fast genre turn for Pressfield.

- Genre experiments keep a writer alive.
Do this first
Read it as entertainment; do not look for a lesson.
