4 stars for Artificial Condition (Murderbot Diaries book 2) by Martha Wells.
I like this book 2 of the Murderbot Diaries, but not as much as book 1 All Systems Red. Part of the reason I reckon is that one third of the book is spent on a certain research transport vessel that the Murderbot protagonist aptly named ART (A**hole Research Transport). I do not much like this ART, not at all, but I do recognise the reason for its presence as a necessary foundation for the story to develop further subsequently. So, I just have to bear with it and read on to get it over with.
I cannot be more glad when the Murderbot protagonist finally reaches its destination and leaves the transport vessel to begin a different set of adventure. Once again, I have a good time going on an action-packed adventure with this Murderbot whose governor module is hacked and is now acting as a free agent and interestingly, a free agent with a conscience.

The follow-up to the hugely popular All Systems Red
It has a dark past -- one in which a number of humans were killed. A past that caused it to christen itself "Murderbot."
But it has only vague memories of the massacre that spawned that title, and it wants to know more.
Teaming up with a Research Transport vessel named ART (you don't want to know what the "A" stands for), Murderbot heads to the mining facility where it went rogue.
What it discovers will forever change the way it thinks...
