Hello humans! I think this W2RW post comes as a surprise to no-one particularly if you follow me on twitter. I recently read the first two books in the Wayfarers series by Becky Chambers and I am utterly obsessed. I cannot wait for this book. I need it immediately. I’m delighted to be going to a Becky Chambers event in Oxford later this month so I shall snap up a copy then!
Goodreads Summary:
From the ground, we stand. From our ship, we live. By the stars, we hope
The incredible new novel by Becky Chambers, author of the belovedThe Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet.
Centuries after the last humans left Earth, the Exodus Fleet is a living relic, a place many are from but few outsiders have seen. Humanity has finally been accepted into the galactic community, but while this has opened doors for many, those who have not yet left for alien cities fear that their carefully cultivated way of life is under threat.
Tessa chose to stay home when her brother Ashby left for the stars, but has to question that decision when her position in the Fleet is threatened.
Kip, a reluctant young apprentice, itches for change but doesn’t know where to find it.
Sawyer, a lost and lonely newcomer, is just looking for a place to belong.
When a disaster rocks this already fragile community, those Exodans who still call the Fleet their home can no longer avoid the inescapable question:
What is the purpose of a ship that has reached its destination?
Are you excited for this book? Let me know in the comments below!
