A Highly Unlikely Scenario, or a Neetsa Pizza Employee's Guide to Saving the World: A Novel

"Cosmic and comic, full of philosophy, mysticism and celestial whimsy. Both profoundly wild and wildly profound."Â
â€”Charles Yu, author of How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe

In the not-too-distant future, competing giant fast food factions rule the world. Leonard works for Neetsa Pizza, the Pythagorean pizza chain, in a lonely but highly surveilled home office, answering calls on his complaints hotline. Itâ€™s a boring job, but he likes itâ€”thereâ€™s a set answer for every scenario, and he never has to leave the house. Except then he starts getting calls from Marco, who claims to be a thirteenth-century explorer just returned from Cathay. And what do you say to a caller like that? Plus, Neetsa Pizza doesnâ€™t like it when you go off script.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Meanwhile, Leonardâ€™s sister keeps disappearing on secret missions with her â€œbook club,â€ leaving him to take care of his nephew, which means Leonard has to go outside. And outside is where the trouble starts.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
A dazzling debut novel wherein medieval Kabbalists, rare book librarians, and Latter-Day Baconians skirmish for control over secret mystical knowledge, and one Neetsa Pizza employee discovers that you canâ€™t save the world with pizza coupons.
