This novella is a nice conclusion to the general story arc that's been ongoing throughout these first 4 books in the series, and it sets up the stand alone full length novel pretty nicely. It was nice to see the return of the PreservationAux team, and I liked the continuation of Murderbot exploring the idea of personhood and figuring out what it wants. Looking forward to reading the next one!

The action in this one is pretty interesting with a lot of moving parts so it is fun to imagine and try to visualize all the fight scenes.

Amazing. I love Murderbot and I love seeing their progressions/growth. This story shows a more sentimental/emotional side to Murderbot and it warms my heart ☺️

This is definitely up there in fave murderbot books so far. As with most sci-fi, my imagining of most of the scenes is incredibly vague but still loving this series. Though keeping up with all the names and places is starting to get difficult

THE FEELS OMFG!!! i was secretly hoping murderbot would eventually meet up with dr. mensah again and omg it happened and my heart was pitter pattering. i know it doesn't like the emotions it's feeling, but murderbot's inner monologue about it had me in my feels. i love it and cannot wait to read the full length novel!!
