19. System Collapse (Murderbot #7)

By Martha Wells (243 pp)

I love Murderbot and a little Murderbot is better than no Murderbot, but also, this felt slight. It starts where the last one left off and the Murderbot crew are headed to the other side of a planet to talk to some colonists before the bad guys get there. Meanwhile, Murderbot is having some operation errors it can't figure out. It felt like a thin story and a lot of Murderbot rumination. Still, always recommend Murderbot. The Internet tells me this is soon to be a TV series on Apple + with Alexander Skarsgård. I guess we will be starting Apple TV again.
