I would love to get a longer viewpoint from others in the murderbot universe, hopefully Martha isn't too occupied with the TV show and has more time to write!

It's always tough finishing one of these as I know there is one less morsel to read of this fantastic series. In this episode, Murderbot finally gets back to the original crew and resolves (hopefully) the GreyCris problem. As always there is witty writing, good character development, and an engaging storyline.

Action packed episode of the diaries. Some more character development and the overarching story moves along nicely. Really punches you in the feels with that ending though…

More characters added to the universe, more character development, some juicy backstory filling in, and the usual good writing!

If you haven’t got into the murderbot universe you are in for a treat. Great characters, sharp humour, great plots, and bite sized morsels to snack on.
Love this series. Going to love re-reading them all for a third time before I watch the new TV show.
So much world building to get into this book. Didn’t really get grabbed by any of the major characters either. By the end I can see where the series might be heading, will probably read the next book when it comes out.

Nice to get the background of what made Marty Marty. Good twisty tale of the origins of Silicon Valley.

This book goes back into Marty’s past a bit and takes a good long hard look at private prison systems and how terrible they really are.

You wouldn’t think a novel about an accountant could be interesting but you would be very very wrong. Cory spins a fabulous tale grounded in the grittiness of modern day San Francisco and surrounds.
I love how Box weaves the threads all together in the end as the tension keeps on racking up. Weird bit of woo woo in there from Nate though!
If you haven’t started this series yet you are in for a treat. Another great entry in the series.
Characters were one dimensional, plot was linear and lazy in its resolutions.
And I thought the TV show was good. It’s usually the case that the book is better than the tv/movie that derives from it. Much prefer the ending in the book to the TV show, much better way to wrap everything up and more realistic I think.

Nice to see everything wrapped up with a bow. Some good twists but Dexter not as his best for most of the book.
