Després de recórrer les zones rurals de Panga, Dex, uni mongi del te de cert renom, i Moixeró, un robot enviat a una recerca per determinar què realment necessita la humanitat, dirigeixen la seva atenció als pobles i ciutats de la petita lluna que anomenen casa. Esperen trobar les respostes que busquen, a la vegada que fan nous amics, aprenen nous conceptes i experimenten la naturalesa entròpica de l’univers. La nova sèrie de Becky Chambers continua preguntant-se: en un món on la gent té el que vol, importa tenir-ne més?

The best hopepunk I have read to date

5 stars

Definitely the light comfort read I was looking for, and like the first in its series it has just enough moments of emotional tension and and philosophical debate to never get twee or boring. But more than its predecessor, the world this is set in is the most convincing, appealing hopepunk I have yet to read. It's clear that it had gone through some very hard times in the past, but the equilibrium that the books are set in feels plausible and inviting. I can think of many other books whose worlds I'd like to visit, but these are among the few I wish I could move to.

yes and more

5 stars

i liked how the storytelling shifted and adapted with the story change that we have between the two groups. the discovery of the different human settlements and their societies is fascinating, thought-provoking and poetic all at once. i loved the ending, even if i had to read it multiple times to be sure. i will miss Dex and Mosscap. :(((

The road trip continues

4 stars

I started this right after I finished the first one. It deals with Mosscap's tour of Panga to learn what humans need. It gets a lot of different answers. We get to experience the different areas of the world and the different ways people choose to live there in a sustainable fashion. No spoilers but Mosscap is presented with an ineresting philosophical question and it turns out Dex still hasn't really found what they're looking for. The ending is quite open and I'm looking forward to find out where the two are heading next.

Quick, gentle, sensorially rich read
