Robot Wrangler Roy and The Sisters of Mercy
By August Mae
Length3h 13m
About this audiobook
On a small, fog-wrapped moon, five ageing care-robots keep an old mission-hospital swept and lit and warm, the beds turned down and the kettle always near the boil, waiting for a town that quietly moved away a generation ago.
Now a brisk salvage agent has come to clear the Sisters of Mercy as obsolete stock and book the moon for reclamation, and robot wrangler Roy has been hired to handle the awkward part: the Sisters will not leave.
Roy works the only way he knows, by listening. The agent sees waste running warm for no customers. Roy sees a calling with nowhere to land, and an old order who welcome his weary crew not as a clearance party but as patients finally arrived.
A warm, hopeful standalone for readers of Becky Chambers, Travis Baldree, and T.J. Klune. Complete in itself; read the wrangles in any order.
