Murderbot diaries is sooo good.

It does such a good job building a convincing world, and its really good in just not going into details that it can't speak on (like how interplanetary travel works), while some of it's takes (e.g. small anti-personel drones) seem almost prescient after Ukraine.

All the synthetic biology and even the depictions of AIs and their struggles are really compelling, too.
