Review

I felt a little lost reading this book. This is the seventh book in the Murderbot diaries. I had a similar feeling reading this book as the last book - Fugitive Telemetry. I was reading it after a while. And network effect was a standalone book, not in the time line order. So it had felt weird because of that.

This one felt weird because it continues the story from Network Effect and I did not remember it properly. I guess this is why I have a tendency to not start a series till it is finished. The reason why I have not watched Stranger Things yet.

Maybe I should have just re-read Network Effect, but the other books in this series have been standalone. That is in fact something I enjoy about this series. Whatever. My enjoyment was a bit diminished hence.

It was still an enjoyable read.

This book follows on from the events in Network Effect, with Murderbot and his batch of humans trying to save a bunch of human settlers from ending up as slaves with BE group. It was a fun read, as these Murderbot books usually are.
