This book is a charming story of an unlikely friendship between a non-binary monk looking for purpose in their life and a curious robot on a mission to meet and understand humans.

They live in a world where humans and robots have lived apart for generations after robots achieved sentience and freedom.

Becky pains a picture of a world that is slightly dystopian without being terrifying. Dex is initially afraid of the world beyond the safety of sealed roads and villages, but with the aid of the ever helpful and eager to understand the world, robot Mosscap, goes on a spiritual journey to find themselves.

Another lovely character driven story from Becky Chambers. Highly recommended
