I read this after reading Partials, but it could easily be read before. It isn't essential to the story line, but does give the reader some background not included in book1. Heron (a Partial spy), appears in both books. I've mentioned I don't love novellas, but I did like this one a little more (thus the 4-star rating, but that's a little more to push it above the other novellas in my personal ranking than to say I really liked it).
I read this right before reading Fragments, hoping it would get me back into the world before I started reading book 2, but it didn't bring enough back. I had to quickly skim Partials as a refresher before continuing on with the sequel.

Come storia è interessante, ma avrei preferito che fosse più corta. Non vedevo l'ora che arrivasse la fine! Fortuna che l'ho letta adesso e non come prequel o non avrei mai cominciato la serie

Reading this before the series has me a bit confused, but I loved the story! Can't wait to see how the series goes

Me encanta cuando nos dan un poco d background de personajes interesantes. Desde que nace hasta que se libera como bien decimos. Muy bien planteado esperando leer más sobre ella en fragmentos.

I read this and I'm kind of at a loss because it's been awhile since I read Partials.

valahogy így kezdődhetett a háború a részlegesekkel. Mei Hao, vagy akárhogy is hívják, akit követünk, egy részleges, és az ő kiképzését és küldetését láthatjuk. nagyon rövid, de elég is volt ennyi. nekem kicsit túl lassú volt, Dan Wells továbbra is jó író, el fogok mindent olvasni tőle, de azért ez annyira nem fogott meg, mint egy nem vagyok sorozatgyilkos vagy egy szellemváros

Aislados nos presenta dos situaciones que llegan al mismo objetivo "el principio del fin", conocemos a Heron en sus comienzos como espía y vemos como un acto de guerra contra China los llevará a presenciar un cambio en la historia de los Partials.
La historia aunque esta muy bien cerrada deja gusto a poco, principalmente creo que me sucedió eso porque Heron es un personaje que le guardo cariño. Me hubiera gustado que nos presentará más historias o detallará otros sucesos, pero creo que el objetivo de Aislados se cumplió.
Al ser una historia corta todo sucede rápido, pero te hace sentir empatía por los Partials.
Le daría más cinco estrellas si pudiera porque la pluma de Dan Wells sigue siendo espectacular y la historia no defrauda.

Isolation wasn't what I expected, I went into this expecting a different war, but I did enjoy getting to see Heron in another role, both as an undercover agent, but also her 'birth' and learning journey.
Isolation lets us she another side to her, and gives some background information into why Heron acts like she does, being more human than other partials. I think if I had read this before I started this series, I may have liked Heron more than I did. This isn't really an essential read for the series, but it is very worth while.
