Another great installment in the Murderbot series!
This is the third book in the Murderbot series and as with the others, I enjoyed this one a lot.
In this book, Murderbot is continuing its investigation into an event that happened and the Corporation's involvement in it and as usual, meets a new cast of characters along the way.
Once again, the writing was fun. We're back to the fun and witty snark of Murderbot, which was less in the previous book. The plot was interesting and we learned some new things about the event that happened. We got a bit of expansion on the world as well, which is always lovely. But once again, the characters are where these books shine. Murderbot is always a delight and his interactions with Miki, a "pet bot" were interesting. I love seeing Murderbot interact with other AI characters. It's always fun and Murderbot is just babey in all the ways. The new human crew in this one was a hit or a miss for me. I didn't love most of them as much as I have in past books, but I don't think we were supposed to.
I'm also having many emotions about the end of this book.
Looking forward to reading the next installme
