Raspberry Pi Robotic Projects, Dr. Richard Grimmett, Packt Publishing, has a chapter on providing speech input and output.
Voice User Interface Projects, Henry Lee, Packt Publishing, focuses entirely on voice interfaces to systems. It shows you how to build chatbots and applications with the Alexa and Google Home voice agents.
Mycroft AI – Introduction Voice Stack – a whitepaper from Mycroft AI gives more detail on how the Mycroft stack works and its components.
Mycroft has a large community that supports and discusses the technology at https://community.mycroft.ai/. I recommend consulting the troubleshooting information of this community. Mycroft is under active development and has both many quirks and many new features. It's also an excellent place to share skills you build for it.
