Summary

The New York Times best-selling security droid with a heart (though it wouldn't admit it!) is back in Fugitive Telemetry!

Having captured the hearts of audiences across the globe (Annalee Newitz says it's "one of the most humane portraits of a nonhuman I've ever read"), Murderbot has also established Martha Wells as one of the great SF writers of today.

No, I didn't kill the dead human. If I had, I wouldn't dump the body in the station mall.

When Murderbot discovers a dead body on Preservation Station, it knows it is going to have to assist station security to determine who the body is (was), how they were killed (that should be relatively straightforward, at least), and why (because apparently that matters to a lot of people - who knew?).

Yes, the unthinkable is about to happen: Murderbot must voluntarily speak to humans!

Again!

Murderbot is a Mood

Another brilliant installment in the murderbot diaries. Murderbot continues to protest that it cares nothing for humans and is a heartless robo-human construct. Luckily for it's human friends it actually cares deeply. It just doesn't understand why humans need all this stuff like 'hugging' and 'eye-contact'.

Same, murderbot. Same.

Another great story

Well done Kevin. Brings our favourite SecUnit to life.
A gripping tale and also dryly humorous. Couldn’t be better.

Loving Murderbdot

Murderbot is as enjoyable as ever. Wells short format is refreshing in a world of 3x15 hour spaceopera epics.
Looking forward to new adventures.

I love Murderbot.

And if you've made it this far into the series, so do you.

Murderbot is more human than most

Really enjoyed this one as it put my two favourite genres of detective fiction and sci-fi together as Murderbot has to solve a mystery and investigate the clues. Along the way he learns more about itself and being “human”. Can’t wait for the next one!

Hot dang!

I did not have very great hopes for this series when I first started listening to this series. Every instalment raises my expectations - and the joy I experience when those expectations are exceeded.

This (the whole series, really) is a masterful blend of plot, setting, characters and dialogue.

Excellent - and the narrator does the material justice.
