Really torn about this book. On one hand, I can barely remember it having just finished it. There's only one real character, precious little emotional development, just a lot of action. OTOH I thoroughly loved reading the book and turned pages as fast as I could to get through the exciting story. Not sure what conclusion to come to except it was enjoyable entertainment. And I continue to like the odd POV that is Murderbot's view on the world.
