A Murderbot Novel
Martha Wells: Network Effect (EBook, 2020, Tor.com)
I’m usually alone in my head, and that’s where 90 plus percent of my problems are.
When Murderbot's human associates (not friends, never friends) are captured and another not-friend from its past requires urgent assistance, Murderbot must choose between inertia and drastic action.
Drastic action it is, then.

Loved the longer arch of the story a lot. Funny, witty, smart and action-packed.
Some stretches were a bit challenging for me to grasp so I had to re-read it several times. Could be that I had to deal with something challenging in the real life.
I will re-read the entire series again - at one point - and I'm already looking forward to reading this one.

a bit too long for my liking of murderbot stories. the middle especially felt like it dragged on forever. still, yet another wholesome murderbot story, this time with the return of ART!
This is probably my favorite Murderbot adventure yet - and that's saying something! I loved reconnecting (ha!) with old friends and getting to know new ones, and I appreciated getting a glimpse into a couple of different POVs as well.
More, please?
Enjoyable, but I got bogged down in the middle for a good while: I suspect I prefer this kind of story at novella length.
