If it wasn't already clear, I love the Murderbot series.

This takes place between Exit Strategy and Network Effect

This one was a bit different from the previous books since this is basically a murder mystery, but it wasn't any less fantastic. I loved getting to see this side of Murderbot (it wasn't allowed to use it's hacking abilities) and the fact that we got to see more of Preservation was also great. I enjoyed getting to see a bit of the law and politics of Preservation in action as well. 

The new characters Murderbot gets to interact with were also fun. I always love Murderbot's interactions with everyone at all times and It's snark was on extra high gear in this book and I loved every second of it. 

100% will reread again and I can't wait for the next installment!

A good old Murderbot murder mystery! With every book I just love Murderbot more and more. And now that I'm officially caught up, I will await more installments v v v impatiently.
