The action in this one is pretty interesting with a lot of moving parts so it is fun to imagine and try to visualize all the fight scenes.

In which Murderbot explores the concept of free will, and chooses to extend it to other constructs. 

I liked the previous three books a bit better, particularly the two that had Murderbot teaming up with other sentient bots.

Amazing. I love Murderbot and I love seeing their progressions/growth. This story shows a more sentimental/emotional side to Murderbot and it warms my heart ☺️

I think we're all Murderbot. We just want to be left alone with our shows but people keep ruining that dream. I'm glad Wells brought back the original team from All Systems Red to really put an end cap on what was supposed to be a 'conclusion' but I'm glad she decided to continue the series.

I did enjoy the book overall, but there time in the chapters felt boring like some of reunion with the members felt repetitive or lack of any depth. Also it was bit hard to remember what happens from book one with some of these characters. I could say it did bring some closure to story of the robot were I don’t feel the need to continue with the series. I stopped reading the series as longer invested anymore which is not due to writing or story itself just feels like I will have more fun with sci-fi like Red rising series.
