Demeter is a spaceship AI whose human passengers keep dying, & each voyage it’s a different challenge—a vampire, werewolf, & Frankenstein’s monster all feature, along with prepubescent teenagers & a curious medical AI who collects tea sets. My favorite found-family find of the year to date, this one is for those who love Becky Chambers & Martha Wells.
