“Tender and healing... I’m prescribing a preorder to anyone who has ever felt lost. Stunning, kind, necessary.” —Sarah Gailey on book 1: A Psalm for the Wild-Built

"This hopeful listen, full of humor, illuminates a world listeners will yearn to return to." -AudioFile on A Prayer for the Crown-Shy

A Prayer for the Crown-Shy is a story of kindness and love from one of the foremost practitioners of hopeful SF.

After touring the rural areas of Panga, Sibling Dex (a Tea Monk of some renown) and Mosscap (a robot sent on a quest to determine what humanity really needs) turn their attention to the villages and cities of the little moon they call home.

They hope to find the answers they seek, while making new friends, learning new concepts, and experiencing the entropic nature of the universe.

Becky Chambers's new series continues to ask: in a world where people have what they want, does having more even matter?

Reseñas de la Crítica

A Goodreads Most Anticipated Summer Read!

A Top Ten LibraryReads Selection!

“[A] lightly drawn but profound meditation on belief, entropy, and the nature of need and want that once again demonstrates Chambers’s prowess as both a storyteller and a thinker. Quiet and contemplative, empathic and warmhearted, this masterful sequel builds on the themes of the first volume to posit a more sustainable, more caring way of life. It’s both truly comforting and endlessly thought-provoking. ” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

“Thoughtful, with a gentleness that is as encompassing as any action-filled work.” —Library Journal, starred review “[A] hopeful glimpse at what our future might look like.” —Booklist

“As charming and heartwarming as the first.” —Buzzfeed

Featured Article: Best of the Year—The 12 Best Sci-Fi Listens of 2022


This year’s sci-fi didn’t shy away from heavy, timely topics like climate change, pandemics, and social justice, but even as the subject matter hit close to home, the listening reached to new heights. Several stunning multicast productions make up this list—as well as narrators we can’t hear enough of. In a world that seems increasingly science fictional by the year, the bar is only set higher for creators in this genre—and this year’s list inches it up a little more.

Hope punk gives me life

A gentle reminder that it can't be enough to just BE in these times of fear and strife

Heartwarming and hopeful

This series is sweet and thoughtful and deceptively philosophical. I think I would like to live in a future like this... even understanding that being human will always be mystifying

it's so exquisitly written. it reads like prose.

Chambers is one of my new favorite authors. If you're looking for emergent writers, you've found one in Chambers. Thought-provoking yet simply executed.

Wholesome. Thought provoking

Such a wholesome story and great narration. Extra words to meet the 15 word minimum

Thought-provoking as ever

A bit more optimistic than humanity sometimes seems to warrant, but for the better half of ourselves, nourishing. Well written and well performed. I feel better and kinder for having listened to this, and as always with Ms Chambers. I have more to think about. Perhaps strangely, the vignette with the fish resounded most strongly with me. After hunting ducks, I felt the same. Set aside the 4 hours and enjoy this rumination; it’s an excellent investment.

More!

I don't have any complaints other than that it was too short. I could have enjoyed 10 times more wandering of the same, even if there's no more plot to it.

Great philosophical story

Becky Chambers does a wonderful job of using very well crafted science fiction to demonstrate different philosophical perspectives. I so enjoy her, interesting, well crafted, and well written stories.
