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.
