This series is delightful. Buddying Murderbot up with a sassy and sarcastic transport ship was brilliant. I enjoyed how their interactions contrasted how two non-human beings might relate, as opposed to how humans relate to robots, AI, constructs, and each other. Clever and humorous, an excellent second installment to the Muderbot Diaries.

A great follow-up to the first Murderbot book. We follow Murderbot on the quest to uncover its dark past which exists at the fringes of its memory after a previous mind wipe. On the way to return to the scene of crime, Murderbot befriends ART although they do have a love-hate relationship (in a totally endearing way of course). I really just enjoy the sci-fi world Martha Wells plops us in via the internal dialogue of a socially anxious, media-obsessed robot.
