Artificial Condition: The Murderbot Diaries

Artificial Condition is the follow-up to Martha Wells's Hugo, Nebula, Alex, and Locus Award-winning, New York Times and USA Today bestselling All Systems Red.
The "I love Murderbot!" —New York Times bestselling author Ann Leckie
It has a dark past—one in which a number of humans were killed. A past that caused it to christen itself “Murderbot”. But it has only vague memories of the massacre that spawned that title, and it wants to know more.
Teaming up with a Research Transport vessel named ART (you don’t want to know what the “A” stands for), Murderbot heads to the mining facility where it went rogue.
What it discovers will forever change the way it thinks…

Readers say *Artificial Condition* is a fun and fast-paced continuation of the Murderbot Diaries, blending humor, action, and thought-provoking themes...
These are little chapters of a longer book. I'm glad I didn't find this series as it was being published. I hate cliffhangers. There is still two mysteries we need answers for: why is the murderbot the way she\it is and what and who organized the murders.

Biased review because Murderbot and ART are the best.
To be honest, I would have read the entire novel and loved it had it just been ART and Murderbot talking. They were so great. However, traveling back the scene of the crime and introducing a new group of humans was still fun. Wells does such an amazing job of telling an inclusive, funny, action packed story that has such depth. This story dives deeper in Autonomy, identity, and conciousness while hitting harder on corperate greed.

Great addition to the series. I was wondering where this series would go given the ending of the first story. I’m glad to see that it’s going in an interesting direction without losing its freshness.
