it was amazing
bookshelves: sci-fi, sff-favorites

A Murderbot noir? Yes, please.

I was so pleased to see that Martha Wells had won the Nebula award for her Murderbot book Network Effect. These are amazing and unique books representing probably my favorite books about a self aware robot (and I am a huge sucker for self aware robots; I’m finishing writing a book about one right now). Fugitive Telemetry had all the on brand snark you’d expect from the series. I really enjoyed the themes of second class citizenry and discrimination that Murderbot suffers simply because of who she or he is. Very well done. I was a little disappointed ART or Murderbot 2.0 didn’t make an appearance. It seems like this novella could be read at any time in the Murderbot series as it chronologically doesn’t seem to be very imperative. At any rate, a great read.

Jonathan O'Neill Nice one, Wick! I totally forgot I had this one on the kindle! Your organisational skills must be amazing! Work, newborn, writing and still reading. I can hardly find time to read! 😅 Curious about your self-aware bot, too!
