This was fun like always, some of the action scenes were a bit too long/detailed, so I ended up zoning out. As always, I enjoy the sarcasm and jokes, but I wish murderbot would demonstrate more growth, since it's book four now

These just keep getting better and better. Murderbot is entirely more enjoyable with each encounter.

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.

I love Murderbot. I like that we get the conflicting emotions (not that Murderbot likes to feel them) of it returning to Dr.Mensah and co. It was a very quick read, which duh novella, but I didn't mind. I was hooked from the beginning. I miss ART though, hope it comes back in the next one. Also I enjoyed the different range of reactions from the PreservationAux folks when Murderbot comes back. And I look forward to seeing how Murderbot continues to grow and if it finally solves the mystery of it's murder spree.
