A warm thanks to Tor Books for the free copy.

I was expecting some Tarantino-like action kinda plot. I mean, have you read the series name? It is by all means a fun and quick read but probably a bit overrated, in my opinion.

SecUnit felt more like a cyborg than a robot to me. I'm guessing it could be related to the fact that he (?) hacked his own governor module, or is it just how self-aware AI robots are supposed to work here? I found the worldbuilding to be thought-provoking, I wanted more background on that.

Another pending series added to the huge pile.
