These books just hit me differently; I can go from laughing because Murderbot tells ART to go fuck itself, and then a minute later, I'm on the verge of tears because Murderbot is just simply not okay. And then I'm in shock and cheering because
I have listened to the audiobook for every Murderbot book and Kevin R. Free continues to be just an absolute delight to listen to. He portrays all of the voices well, especially Murderbot's dry, sarcastic tone. However, there were certain parts I wish I had a physical or digital copy to actually read and follow along with- I think it would have been helpful for me to visualize the coding language Murderbot uses to communicate with another more archaic unit. One reason to just buy the series, ehehe...

That aside, I live and breathe for Murderbot as a character always and seeing It struggle the way it did in this book was a whole thing for me to experience - essentially It's working through it's trauma and is not having a good time. ART is also one of my favorites always and ART and MB's dynamic is everything.
I love seeing the evolution of the humans' relationships with each other and with the bots throughout the books and it was no different here.
This book deals a lot with colonization of a specific planet and seeing the politics involved in all of that was so interesting, but also infuriating.
All in all, another fantastic Murderbot book.
