System Collapse by Martha Wells
The direct sequel to Network Effect brings Murderbot and ART back together again to tackle alien artefacts, Barish-Estranza baddies with non-rogue SecUnits, colonists with trust issues, < redacted >, and rights conflicts.
I hope this isn’t the last of the Murderbot diaries, and I can’t wait for the TV series (please be good), as I am now bereft of new content about the most lovable SecUnit in existence.
‘What came out was, 'Something in me broke.'" You know what broke, Murderbot? My heart. ★★★★☆
