Is Murderbot turning me into a sci-fi girlie?? The answer is - probably, yes. The second installment of The Murderbot Diaries was even better than the first. While it took me a little longer to get into the story, the development we saw with Murderbot in their relationships with ART (absolutely love this character and so hope to see them again in future installments) and the human clients they take on in their own quest for answers, was so interesting. There is so much humor within Murderbot that I hadn't been expecting when I started the series, and it really adds so much to not only the story but to their humanity.

How Wells manages to fit so much into so few pages is astounding and I can't wait to pick up Rogue Protocol.
