The stand-alone sequel to the award-winning The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet
Lovelace was once merely a ship's artificial intelligence. When she wakes up in an new body, following a total system shut-down and reboot, she has to start over in a synthetic body, in a world where her kind are illegal. She's never felt so alone.
But she's not alone, not really. Pepper, one of the engineers who risked life and limb to reinstall Lovelace, is determined to help her adjust to her new world. Because Pepper knows a thing or two about starting over.
Together, Pepper and Lovey will discover that, huge as the galaxy may be, it's anything but empty.

Väldigt bra bok, författare och uppläsare. @Storytel: Var är de efterföljande böckerna i serien?

Denna var ännu bättre än första boken. Så fin, sorglig och spännande, i det där lite vilsamma tempot som är Becky Chambers stil.

Fantastisk bok om något sorgligt. Älskar dessa nya böcker där andra former av liv, sexualitet, kön osv normaliseras! Underbara karaktärer o ett coolt universum.

Lika bra som första boken men på ett annat sättDen här är mer sorglig då den handlar om existens och rätten att finnas

En fantastisk sci-fi som precis som första boken fokuserar mer på känslor, relationer och tankar om identitet än på själva rymd-delen. Vem har rätten att existera?

Unlike the previous book I found this a bit repetative and predictable. Its still well written and worth the read if you like the world.

One reread later. This is one ofmy all time favorite books. Wonderful, slow paced, character driven book. An amazing story about finding your your identity and purpose in life. And about the importance of friendship and family. The portrayal of artificial intelligence (and the everyday challenges an AI could face when trying to fit into a society of organic beings) is so extremely well thought out and believable. And surprisingly, even though this book portraits foreign cultures and creatures, I seldom have read a book that is so good at portraying the wonders and frustrations of living today in our modern globalized, complicated, intersectional society.

Fantastisk bok! Väcker en hel del tankar kring vad som kan betraktas som mänskligt…
