Another Murderbot installment. Something has happened to Murderbot that is affecting its performance. Trying to power on through, it accompanies its humans to find some colonists and protect them from a corporation that wants to enlist them for indentured servitude.

- The same Murderbot depressed sarcasm that we all know and love is present in full force and I love it. I also adore Murderbot and ART's interactions.

- The plot itself was okay. It wasn't anything massively different or groundbreaking but it was comfortable and enjoyable.

- There are hints of growth and change for Murderbot and I'm really interested to see where Wells takes it from here. 

A solid but not particularly innovative entry. Fans of the series will enjoy.
