Fugitive Telemetry

While Network Effect was heavy on the alien thriller angle — and I do enjoy all the alien remnant stuff — Fugitive Telemetry was more of an almost noir whodunnit, and it really worked for me. There's also a shift from SecUnit as avatar of neurodivergence to SecUnit as subject of casual prejudice/racism, underscoring the story's focus on slavery practices in the CorporationRim.

While it didn't have the same emotional impact/ personal growth of the previous book, it's no less exciting or fast-paced (maybe more so since it's shorter) and I can't wait to find out what's in store for SecUnit next!
