This book closes the loop of Murderbot-out-on-its-own, which is timely, given that plot was getting a bit stale at this point. Unfortunately, MBs quest to find more answers about its past was abandoned at the end of the last book, and there's no hint of it anywhere in this book.
MB fights off more bastard corpos and reunites with Dr. Mensah, which lets the future books in the series drive forwards, but once again the pacing of the book seems ever so slightly accelerated. Scenes and plot devices aren't given room to breathe, and the book just seems to jump from action to action. Good as a page turner, but its a meal that quickly leaves you hungry for more.
