Book Reviews: The Monk and Robot Series, “a Psalm for the Wild-Built” and “a Prayer for the Crown-Shy”, by Becky Chambers.
The Monk and Robot series, which contains two books, “a Psalm for the Wild-Built” and “a Prayer for the Crown-Shy”, was written by Becky Chambers. It features the main character, Sibling Dex, a non-binary monk to the God of Little Comforts, Allalae, and a mysterious figure (that one could probably work out from both the cover art and title of the two-part book series).
Book Review: Queens of the Wild Pagan Goddesses in Christian Europe: An Investigation by Hutton.
In his new book “Queens of the Wild”, Hutton introduces us to four “Queens of the Wild”, namely, Mother Earth, the Fairy Queen, the Lady of the Night, and the Cailleach, and in the epilogue, he considers a fifth figure, the Green Man. Hutton provides a treasure trove of information on these figures, from the first page to the last, detailing the history of scholarship and cultural expressions they have enjoyed for hundreds of years.
