3.5

Although the book is great as a standalone short story, it doesn't compare to the other books in the series in my opinion, especially considering how amazing the last novel before this one was (Network Effect). This feels like a filler book, which although does serve to extend Murderbot's backstory about its life and role in Preservation, doesn't have a very strong character development and kind of interrupts the flow of the story after Network Effect. I'd recommend reading it if you're craving to know more about Murderbot's job in Preservation, with a bit of a murder mystery, but otherwise, you can skip right ahead to the next book (System Collapse).
