Becky Chambers
Book 2 of the Wayfarers series
Set in the same world as the ...small angry planet we get the backstory on Pepper (the tech), and the next chapter for Pepper and Lovelace (the sentient AI). This is a 2 character story, with 2 supporting characters. And it is outstanding. Lovelace is an infant in many ways, learning to grow into a new body. Too smart and not smart enough, booksmart not streetsmart, etc. And damaged goods psychologically. So it makes all the sense in the world as we learn of Pepper's origin and how she also was raised by a ship AI, that these two are learning how to be people together. Chambers is a master craftswoman.
4 stars (out of 4)
