I would like to thank both Tor Publishing and NetGalley for allowing me to read and review this book.
Book Review:
It is always hard to review a book, but it is even harder to review the eighth book in a series without giving anything away. I liked this book and I gave it 3 stars.
In this book the murderbot is on a rescue mission. He is to help a human mom rescue her family and take them to a safe place. Things don't go as planned and this is the adventure they end up on. The murderbot does have help from a couple of other humans.
I like how the author gives the murderbot human feelings and he keeps checking into them. I like how the humans are there for him and actually help him along the way.
In all it was a nice addition to the series.
