Do andoids dream of electic sheep? When it comes to Murderbot not. He mostly dreams of soap opera's and other tv-series.
This book plays a bit with the idea of human vs augmented human vs construct (half biological android) seen through the eyes of the android. Who has what rights? And if a being can have original taught, is it a person? Can it be owned? Would that be slavery?
This isn't a philosophical book, and it's too short to really flesh out these ideas. But I enjoyed it non-the-less and look forward reading the rest of the series.
