For once, Murderbot is able to use all it’s abilities, no longer impersonating an augmented human or standard SecUnit.Īlong the way, Murderbot has continually worked on improving it’s hacking abilities. In Exit Strategy, Murderbot is given the responsibility to do it’s job (protecting humans) with a group of humans that knows and trusts Murderbot. Rogue Protocol has Murderbot see the depths of connection that can form between a construct and a human and how it can be a valued member of team as it’s actual SecUnit self. Artificial Condition shows Murderbot that artificial constructs, of all types, can have relationships with each other and what it’s like to be part of a team with humans, even if it had to maintain an illusion of being an augmented human. All Systems Red was our introduction to Murderbot and it’s world. On this re-read, I’ve been thinking about the function of each book. I was going to give myself review amnesty but instead decided to re-read at least the novellas and write a review immediately after each book. Once I was finished I realized I couldn’t separate the books well enough to write reviews. I then proceeded to blitzkrieg my way through the other two novellas and the novel. For self care, I started reading the second Murderbot novella the day after the election.
