Series: Monk & Robot

“Hugo Award-winner Becky Chambers’s Monk & Robot is a delightful sci-fi series that gives readers hope for the future.

In A Psalm for the Wild-Built, the first book in this philosophically adventurous series, the robots of Panga have long ago achieved self-awareness and retreated into the forests, where they’ve become the stuff of legends and myth. However, when a robot checks in on a tea monk one day, honoring its ancient duty, it cannot leave until the monk answers the simple question: ‘What do you need?’”
