Absolutely obsessed —
having the pay off of murderbot’s interest (AND ART’s) in media be a plot point made me giggle.
honestly what can I say, I love the cast of characters. This is longer than the norm, but not as long as network effect so had more of the “usual” pacing for a murderbot adventure.

Murderbot’s most human adventure yet. Always has me on the edge of my seat and is never long enough. I think this is the last book and I’m very sad about it but it feels like a good end to the story.

I love how much Murderbot and ART interactions we got with this one. I can’t wait to see where this series takes us next.

Murderbot is a comfort read, knowing that I will laugh, tear up and randomly smile at bits. My heart melted when everyone stepped in to help realise Murderbot's idea and what a brilliant idea it was!

Loved it, as always. But I don't know if it was a narrator thing or an intentional Murderbot thing (given the situation), but the character just seemed...off.

Love a baby filmmaker. ♥️
