Summary
Ratthi persuades Murderbot and Gurathin to go on a survey trip to a planet with the ominous nickname of Spider Planet. Soon, troubles with corporates and the local fauna mean that SecUnit is earning its currency cards, but nothing SecUnit can't handle - until it can't.
"I’d like to say that at least things couldn’t get any worse, but whenever someone says that in the media things inevitably do get worse and that seems to be one of the things media actually gets right. Oh right. I just remembered how this gets worse: the only person who could help me was Gurathin."

Summary
John had noticed it at the village meeting. Unlike the smaller nuclear family groups he’d been used to from parties for company employees his father had thrown when he still lived at home, here, the family clusters were larger and centered around four, not two. He was constantly seeing the couples within them – two women holding hands, or the guys from a foursome with an arm around each others’ shoulders. Always trying in his head to work out the permutations and combinations, figure out who was morning and who was evening. Who was fucking whom.
He shook his head. He didn’t even know what this morning and evening shit meant, but he was obsessed with it. Obsessed by what it would mean if his team were like the Ki’O. A sedoretu.

Summary
To lose a manservant once may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose him twice looks like carelessness. When Merlin vanishes in the mines of Kemeray, Arthur's search for him uncovers decades of secrets and betrayals. But the sudden appearance of a baby white dragon bodes well for Albion, for Merlin and Arthur, and for the land that they will build together.

Summary
Arthur finds out Merlin's secret - and he does not react well.
Arthur snatched his sword up from the ground, rolled back onto his feet and lunged forward quickly to bring the point to Merlin's chest and keep him away. "Stay where you are," he said and Merlin stopped, his eyes going wide in panic.
