Kevin R. Free’s narration plays a key role in this story which is full of action and suspense. Usually, fantasies don’t progress in this way but the author Martha Wells wants to keep it this way. The author has tried to keep everything charged up for the listeners who want action-packed stories that can decorate their weekends.
Murderbot is back for another action-packed story, the poor robot has faced a lot of troubles in the human world in the past and these old thoughts still pinch him in the mind. Most of the time the robot does not think about other people or the future rather he keeps occupied by the thoughts that have become a permanent part of his memory.
This way he tries to live away from society but the past hurts him the most. Now one of his old associates comes to him and asks for some assistance. The Muderbot has no friends in the human world but when a human asks for help the robot cannot say no to it. The mission which is accepted is not easy and once again there would be several things that would be at stake but what can a robot do when a human calls for help.
It’s full of action like Fugitive Telemetry and All Systems Red however the battle is not personal this time. In the later part of the novel things become serious but they are not personal for the Murderbot. Several new happenings get added to the mind of the Murderbot and he seems to be regretting the thing that he took part in the mission to save another human.
