This novella steps it up a notch. We already know Murderbot, now we get to see what it does when it has agency. We are introduced to ART, whom I entirely adore, and we get to care more about the new human characters introduced. I enjoyed this one more than the first one and it really cemented my interest in this series. I also switched to audiobook for this one, and it is excellent! (Same narrator as Carl in A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor, which was exciting for me.)
