If A Psalm for the Wild-Built is a cake, then A Prayer for the Crown-Shy is another, just as good if not better, cake. 

This book features my favorite bits of its prequel and builds on it by simply adding more. More exploration of a post-utopian world, more philosophical ramblings between two queer characters that I would be fine with going on for three hundred pages, more robot being curious about human society and human being curious about robot society. 

This is everything I want in a sequel, and I want 20 more of these little Panga non-binary bitches (/pos)
