    Summary

    After Murderbot leaves Port FreeCommerce, it accidentally ends up on a station in the middle of an attempted corporate takeover. Trapped by the crossfire and lockdown, Murderbot is sure its short-lived freedom is over. Then the injured human next to it makes an offer—get her to the MedSystem on her ship, and she’ll provide a ride off the station.

    Summary

    There's more than one person at PreservationAux Survey that has memory of Ganaka Pit. Pieces of organic memories surface in Murderbot's mind, centered on Dr. Gurathin.

    In the past, Gurathin struggles to make ends meet and pay his debts without the lucrative espionage bonuses. Sober. He ends up at RaviHyral in a dead-end technician job.

    Summary

    Murderbot on a dinosaur park vacation planet, what could go wrong?

    Everything, obviously, because why was the security so good, why do so many humans want to be on this stupid planet, and why were there non-SecUnit, non-CombatUnit, non-ComfortUnit constructs walking around on their own?

    (there WILL NOT be Platform Decay spoilers at any point)
