Winner of the Hugo Award!In A Psalm for the Wild-Built bestselling Becky Chambers's delightful
new Monk and Robot series gives us hope for the future. It's been centuries since the robots
of Panga gained self-awareness and laid down their tools centuries since they wandered en
masse into the wilderness never to be seen again centuries since they faded into myth and
urban legend. One day the life of a tea monk is upended by the arrival of a robot there to
honor the old promise of checking in. The robot cannot go back until the question of what do
people need? is answered. But the answer to that question depends on who you ask and how.
They're going to need to ask it a lot. Becky Chambers's new series asks: in a world where
people have what they want does having more matter?
