Pros:
-Murderbot is a great character and super relatable for a robot, I love seeing it navigate the world and figure out what it wants.
-
There is more emotion in this one and it's nice to see humans that actually care about Murderbot as a person.

-
I'm so glad ART was back! I love their relationship and I hope we get more.

- There is a good amount of action and fights.
-Writing is very good 

Cons:
- This was too long and could have been another novella. I don't feel that much more happened to justify it being a full length novel.
- I don't feel like the plot wrapped up very well
- I found the story dragged in a lot of places

Overall a fun addition to the series with brilliant characters and interesting interactions between them.
