SciFi’s favorite antisocial A.I. is again on a mission. The case against the too-big-to-fail GrayCris Corporation is floundering, and more importantly, authorities are beginning to ask more questions about where Dr. Mensah’s SecUnit is.
And Murderbot would rather those questions went away. For good.
This was my favorite Murderbot book so far. The fact that so many robot characters in this series are incredibly wholesome reminds me a lot of the video game Stray. It’s a refreshing change of pace from the terrifying stories where robots turn on the human race.
I can’t wait to read the next one!
The 3rd book isn't as funny as the former ones, but still very good. I love SecUnit, or Rin, as it calls itself in this book, with all the cave-ats I noted before. It seems to focus alot on humans (as it was conditioned to do so), but the thing is, what I like here is it's focus on me, the human. So I like the bot because it tries to be human: this says more about me than about any possible bots. And really, all three books feel like chapters in a large novel. Anyway, I'll get myself the next, last part of this series for sure.
Hey, just cos this one took me an extra day to read doesn't mean I liked it any less. Murderbot, keeps breaking my heart.
