Dr Mensah is the PoV, and she’s back at home, struggling mentally after being captive. SecUnit is watching, through cameras, of course, as Dr Mensah tries to fit back into her duties at Preservation, and SecUnit’s putting in purchase requests for armaments....of course.
I would die for Dr Mensah
It drops the reader right in the middle of so much, but it is done perfectly. I was satisfied with what I had AND I also desired more.
No. I'm not reviewing it one more effing freaking time so that some small-minded tool of a robot can delete it. Because my review has been deleted at least three times. It's part of my short-story round-up at my blog:https://clsiewert.wordpress.com/2020/...
A fantastic little nugget of information about the relationship between Murderbot and Mensah, from Mensah's point of view. Great writing by Martha Wells as always and fantastic insight into Mensah's post traumatic stress disorder after being kidnapped.

This is one of my favorite ongoing series and my favorite aspect of this series is the point of view of Murderbot. This story differen...
Ok, that’s weird. My review of this one disappeared, but comments and likes remained. GR is getting buggy in a strange way. And of course, I have no backup of this review, so let’s see what I recall.———— “It’s about being treated as a thing, isn’t it. Whether that thing is a hostage of conditional value, or a very expensively designed and equipped enslaved machine/organic intelligence.

There are few better literary thrills than unexpectedly stumbling across a Murderbot story! Especially if it's an online freebie.This story is set after the first four novellas in this series (and yes, you really do need to read them first). Murderbot is now in the Preservation System with Dr. Ayda Mensah, the closest person to a friend it has, and Murderbot has come a long way to even consider being friends with someone. Mensah is struggling with PTSD in the aftermath of being kidnapped in Exit...
