A cyborg security agent has been set free, and decides to find out where some of his missing memories have gone--only to get caught up helping a naive trio of researchers in Martha Wells' Artificial Condition.
This is the second in her series called "The Murderbot Diaries" and follows directly on the heels of All Systems Red. In this one, our troubled protagonist heads to a moon-based mining colony where once he was involved in a massacre, though the motivations for the killings are hidden from his sight. His discoveries, and his reluctant assistance to some people in need, gradually inch him towards humanity, and his next adventure.
The storytelling is breezy and the book slender, but remains enjoyable throughout. I picked this up at the New Castle-Henry County Public Library and read it quickly. I will definitely look for the next one when I'm ready for a light sci-fi read.
