New York: Tor:, 2025. First edition, Hardcover, New in dust jacket, 103 pp. Cover artwork by: Feifei Ruan "Near the topmost deck of an interstellar generation ship, Dorothy Gentleman wakes up in a body that isn't hers--just as someone else is found murdered. As one of the ship's detectives, Dorothy usually delights in unraveling the schemes on board the Fairweather, but when she finds that someone is not only killing bodies, but purposefully deleting minds from the Library, she realizes something even more sinister is afoot."

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. A beautifully conceived work of optimistic, philosophical science fiction by Hugo Award-winning author Becky Chambers. Set on the ecologically restored moon of Panga, the novella follows Sibling Dex, a wandering tea monk searching for greater purpose, whose journey changes upon encountering Mosscap, a robot emerging from the wilderness centuries after robots voluntarily departed human civilization. Through their conversations, Chambers explores consciousness, environmental stewardship, human needs, friendship, and the meaning of a fulfilling life. A notable contribution to contemporary hopepunk and solarpunk literature, the book combines thoughtful speculative worldbuilding with a warm, contemplative narrative. Condition: Near Fine hardcover / Very Good+ dust jacket. Attractive mustard-yellow paper-covered boards with black spine lettering; clean, well-presented surfaces and minor shelfwear at the extremities. Interior pages are clean and bright, with no markings found. The original, unclipped dust jacket retains its striking woodland illustration, with light edgewear and minor creasing, particularly around the flap folds and extremities. The original price remains printed on the front flap. Edition verification: The copyright page explicitly states "First Edition: July 2021," and the printer's number line reads 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1, confirming the first printing. This is a particularly appealing first printing of a significant contemporary science-fiction novella. A Psalm for the Wild-Built won the 2022 Hugo Award for Best Novella, giving the original 2021 printing additional collector interest. The award is confirmed by the official Hugo Awards record. The dust jacket is also noteworthy. Illustrator Feifei Ruan created the richly detailed artwork, while Christine Foltzer handled the jacket design. Their woodland imagery, winding pathways, and small robot figure visually express the book's ecological and philosophical themes. Both contributors were credited in the publisher's original September 2020 cover announcement, making the attribution contemporary and secure.

Hardback. Condizione: New. 1st. Nature has gone feral. How can we re-attune ourselves to the new nature? A field guide can help. While the global scientific community recently made headlines by ruling the Anthropocene-an era many date to the Industrial Revolution when human action truly began to transform the planet-did not qualify for a geological epoch quite yet, understanding the nature of human transformation of the Earth is more important than ever. The effects of human activity are global in scope, but take shape within distinct social and ecological "patches," discontinuous regions within which the key actors may not be human, but the plants, animals, fungi, viruses, plastics, and chemicals creating our new world. Field Guide to the Patchy Anthropocene takes stock of our current planetary crisis, leading readers through a series of sites, thought experiments, and genre-stretching descriptive practices to nurture a revitalized natural history. Field guides teach us how to notice, name, and so better appreciate more-than-human worlds. They hone our powers of observation and teach us to see the world anew. Field-based observations and place-based knowledge cultivation-getting up-close and personal with patchy dynamics-are vital to truly grapple with the ecological challenges and the historical conjunctures that are bringing us to multiple catastrophic tipping points. How has commercial agriculture runoff given rise to comb jellies in the Black Sea? What role did the Atlantic slave trade play in the worldwide spread of virus-carrying mosquitoes? How did the green revolution transform the brown planthopper into a superpredator in Philippine rice fields? Questions like these open up new ways of understanding, and ways of living through, the epoch that human activity has ushered in. This Field Guide shifts attention away from knowledge extractive practices of globalization to encourage skilled observers of many stripes to pursue their commitments to place, social justice, and multispecies community. It is through attention to the beings, places, ecologies, and histories of the Anthropocene that we can reignite curiosity, wonder, and care for our damaged planet.…
