Just waiting on my library hold for System Collapse. Can't get over the belligerent Asexual tension. 10/10 thus far.

It’s excellent. I only wish there were more full length novels, but the novellas are great.

Yes the only bad thing about the murderbot diaries is there aren't more of them.

Also making my way through them currently and thoroughly enjoying them.

Agh, this has been on my TBR embarrassingly too long. I read Witch King last year and told myself I'd get to Murderbot next... this year!

Could be a good thing or a bad thing for you; Witch King is very, very different from the Murderbot series. I see a lot of people liking one and hating the other (in both directions), and not a lot of people liking both.

My advice would be to have your expectations set like it was a completely different author.

Fair enough! I do like both fantasy and sci-fi, but haven't been reading as much of the latter lately. I think Murderbot could be a good segue to get back into it.
