Publisher Description
A most-anticipated title from USA Today, Goodreads, BookPage, BookRiot, Seattle Times, and The Nerd Daily!
Everyone's favorite lethal SecUnit is back in the next installment of Martha Wells' bestselling and award-winning Murderbot Diaries series.
Having someone else support your bad decision feels kind of good.
After volunteering to run a rescue mission, Murderbot realizes that it will have to spend significant time with a bunch of humans it doesn't know.
Including human children. Ugh.
This may well call for … eye contact!
(Emotion check: Oh, for f—)
“This spectacular journey, punctuated with satisfying combat scenes, takes on an epic flavor grounded by Murderbot’s sardonic voice and Wells' exploration of mental health and physical well-being. Equal parts action packed, humorous, and heartfelt, this proves the series shows no signs of slowing down.”—Publishers Weekly
Customer Reviews
Murderbot Grows Up
Been a fan of Martha Wells since the Death of the Necromancer, and she is a master of character development before your eyes. Dr. Bharadwaj has has done great work with Secunit. This is one more great entry in the Murderbot Diaries. Loved it.
Possibly the best Murderbot novel in the series
Spoiler free (mostly):
Secunit is off on a rescue mission, trying to recover some humans for his friends. Along the way he/it has to help a couple of unexpected people as well.
While the opening is a little abrupt, I quickly became engaged and concerned for Tula and Janity (that’s the only spoiler I will drop). The resolution was appropriate for the circumstances, but I can understand if some readers might feel it was anticlimactic.
Exciting
When I saw a new Murderbot story had been released I was excited. For me, it did not disappoint. It’s fun, exciting, heartfelt, and full of the Murderbot-isms we’ve come to enjoy. I highly recommend.
