Ooh I don’t know. I’ve read them over the past few years, but don’t recall all the story lines as individual, separate stories. As for story arcs, I like the interactions with other bots the best and think that’s where the storytelling is most inventive. The friendship with Art and mentoring of Three bring a lightness but also unique elements that are different from other sci fi. I would rather have more books about Murderbot and Art‘s adventures than about the Preservation family.
Agreed, and to be fair, one of the best elements of the series is SecUnit's growth from extreme social anxiety, and you can't simultaneously have consistent growth and also keep the extreme anxiety.
