Fascinating, feel good sci-fi

I enjoyed this one even more than the prequel. The story is divided into two perspectives and timelines that we switch between. This is an intriguing way of story-telling which I thoroughly enjoy. Furthermore, this novel has unique and highly loveable central characters (an AI and a human/clone!) and their stories and histories ... I enjoyed this one even more than the prequel. The story is divided into two perspectives and timelines that we switch between. This is an intriguing way of story-telling which I thoroughly enjoy. Furthermore, this novel has unique and highly loveable central characters (an AI and a human/clone!) and their stories and histories made for a fascinating read. Just like "A long way to a small and angry planet" this novel is a soft, feel good sci-fi which will comfort you and make you smile.

'Chambers is simply an exceptional talent' Tor.com
**Winner of the 2017 Prix Julia-Verlanger**
The stand-alone sequel to the award-winning The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet
Lovelace was once merely a ship's artificial intelligence. When she wakes up in an new body, following a total system shut-down and reboot, she has to start over in a synthetic body, in a world where her kind are illegal. She's never felt so alone.
But she's not alone, not really. Pepper, one of the engineers who risked life and limb to reinstall Lovelace, is determined to help her adjust to her new world. Because Pepper knows a thing or two about starting over.
Together, Pepper and Lovey will discover that, huge as the galaxy may be, it's anything but empty.
