Monk and Robot - Becky Chambers

nBecky Chambers' two award-winning, bestselling, beloved, and uplifting Monk and Robot stories, A Psalm for the Wild-Built and A Prayer for the Crown-Shy, together in trade paperback for the first time! n nBecky Chambers' delightful, post-Utopian, Hugo Award-winning series gives us hope for the future. n nIt'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.

n nOne 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.

n nBut the answer to that question depends on who you ask, and how. nThey're going to need to ask it a lot. n nBecky Chambers' series asks: in a world where people have what they want, does having more matter?

n nThis book includes both A Psalm for the Wild-Built and A Prayer for the Crown-Shy in paperback for the first time!n
