Synopsis from Goodreads:
Murderbot wasn’t programmed to care. So, its decision to help the only human who ever showed it respect must be a system glitch, right?
Having traveled the width of the galaxy to unearth details of its own murderous transgressions, as well as those of the GrayCris Corporation, Murderbot is heading home to help Dr. Mensah—its former owner (protector? friend?)—submit evidence that could prevent GrayCris from destroying more colonists in its never-ending quest for profit.
But who’s going to believe a SecUnit gone rogue?
And what will become of it when it’s caught?
Review:
Exit Strategy is the fourth book in the Murderbot Diaries series and possibly my favorite one yet.
After getting a new set of characters in each book, we finally get to see some of the characters from the first book again! It was really great seeing them and finding out a bit about what's been happening with them, especially Dr. Mensah. Aside from Murderbot, Mensah is probably my favorite character.
This book also seemed particularly focused on Murderbot's character development. That's something that's been part of every book, but it was up front and center in this one. Murderbot's perspective on humans is definitely evolving, and that's very apparent in this one.
Exit Strategy has left me eager to dive into the fifth book. The next one is also a novel instead of a novella, so I'm excited to see how much Murderbot can get up to in a longer book.
