This one was a bit of a murder mystery/whodunnit/almost a buddy cop moment and I’m not mad about it at all. I don’t think it moved the major overarching story much but it did develop more of the interpersonal relationships that Murderbot has been, let’s say, cultivating in a quasi-antagonistic manner.

I don't love that this is a jump back in time to before Network Effect, if I had know that I would have read them in chronological order... but I love a good murder-who-dunnit and this one has snarky murderbot in the middle of the mystery and action 🥰 love it

Loved it as always with this series. This story seems to take a step back in the timeline of the diaries. It is possible that it takes place after the events in the previous book, but feels more like it happens before. A character who is mentioned in the previous book is met in this one and subtle mentions of two repeat characters either starting projects or preping for projects which have happened in the previous book. So if you are a reader who MUST read in timeline order, switch the two. However, reading them in published order does not diminish either story.
