On the surface, this series is sarcastic and fun. But it has undercurrents of addressing important social issues like colonisation, PSTD, corporate greed, and the rights of sentient beings.
Every single book in this series so far has been immensely enjoyable and I’ve come to adore Murderbot and their companions.
I implore everyone to give this series a try. You won’t be disappointed!

I particularly love the way that Wells has a slow burn to a big reveal around Murderbot (and other SecUnits’) mental/psychological state. Just fantastic.
