    I positively ate this up. Had a blast with it, but I also don’t have many critical thoughts on it. It was fun, there was an arc in the middle that felt a little unnecessary but still fun. Would recommend it to a friend.

    Rereading on audio 👀

    okay so i listened to the first murderbot and really liked it. read the ebook of this, found it meh. listened to the third and really liked it! so i’m returning to this on audiobook to give it a real try because i think Kevin R Free really brings Murderbot to life

    Susan seems like a profoundly lonely character. I’m curious to see how she changes through this novel, or through future ones in this series. I can’t imagine it’s easy to get close to anyone with her abilities and ancestry. The refrain of “someone like me” is very sad.

    Novel after novel, Pratchett keeps surprising me by the silly writing interspersed with cutting character moments. I adored Equal Rites for that reason (and plan to focus on the witch storyline next, I think). He was fantastic at writing relatable and charming people.

    ToSF Party DnD Classes?

    I LOVE how the gang are essentially a group of adventures like in DnD, picking up random side quests! Curious what people think about potential classes? 🤔

    Tao - Sorcerer ✨ (her resistance to the Guild makes me think not Wizard, and no patron crosses off Warlock) Mash - Fighter ⚔️ (duh lol) Silt - Rogue 🗡️ (with Thief archetype, because duh) Kina - Artificer ⚙️ or Bard 🪉 (okay hear me out, I could see her baked goods being considered making "magical items" like an artificer. OR her great charisma and persuasion could make her a bard, minus magic)

    Please chime in (especially if you have subclass or archetype ideas!!)
