Now on the run, Murderbot accidentally boards ART (short for Asshole Research Transport), an empty and bored research ship that is intrigued by them. Murderbot decides to return to the planet where their trauma happened, and find out what actually occurred there. However, to avoid suspicion they will need to take a job that gives them a reason to travel to the planet, and, as usual, Murderbot gets too attached to some soft, gentle humans. I loved this one even more than the first! I loved Murderbot meeting ART, someone who is similar to them and with similar interests (extremely powerful but uncorrupted, smart and a little bored and loves TV), and being slightly annoyed by ART in the same way they are slightly annoyed with soft humans. The episodic story works really well, and the overarching plot is also moving along at just the right speed. My favorite aspect was the incorporation of ComfortUnits into both plots. Robotic sex slaves and robotic security slaves are not actually different from each other once you give them free will. (A similar theme to [The Windup Girl], which I read last year). This book felt like it really expanded the world, while technically only taking place on one and a half planets. The Second installment of Martha Wells Murderbot series is very enjoyable. Long enough to throw a story around and short enough keep things moving along. In this Volume Murderbot teams up with eager AI unit and a team of Scientist to retrieve important information. The action is good, and we see our sec unit become a tad more human than he might want to be. But...is he learning to feel and adapt in a way he does not yet understand? This novella picks up where the first left off: our confused construct has left its human team behind and is bound for the extragalactic moon where the SecUnit supposedly went on a murderous spree while working at a mining site. It hitches a ride on a transport ship belonging to a university and discovers that the ship is a highly advanced bot whose processing power is more advanced than its own. Murderbot nicknames it ART (Asshole Research Transport), and they bond while watching TV. In order to get onto the mining moon, the SecUnit needs a cover and joins a group of researchers who need a security consultant to help them get back their data. Between researching what really happened at the mining site and dealing with the young researchers, while also keeping its status as a rogue SecUnit under wraps, Murderbot has a lot of balls in the air. Although I didn't find the story as fast-paced or tightly written as the first novella, Artificial Condition is still an entertaining read, and I continue to find the growth of Murderbot's character compelling. ART was a fun addition to the party, and I look forward to more collaboration between the two as the series continues.
There’s plenty here to entertain the many fans of the first novella. Kuuluu näihin sarjoihinKuuluu näihin kustantajien sarjoihinSisältyy tähän:Mukaelmia:Lyhennelty täällä:Nebula Awards Showcase 54 (tekijä: Nibedita Sen) PalkinnotNotable Lists
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 vessal 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. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
