About this listen

The million-copy, New York Times bestselling Murderbot series is back in another full-length novel adventure!

Am I making it worse? I think I'm making it worse.

Everyone's favorite lethal SecUnit is back.

Following the events in Network Effect, the Barish-Estranza corporation has sent rescue ships to a newly colonized planet in peril, as well as additional SecUnits. But if there's an ethical corporation out there, Murderbot has yet to find it, and if Barish-Estranza can't have the planet, they're sure as hell not leaving without something. If that something just happens to be an entire colony of humans, well, a free workforce is a decent runner-up prize.

But there's something wrong with Murderbot; it isn't running within normal operational parameters. ART's crew and the humans from Preservation are doing everything they can to protect the colonists, but with Barish-Estranza's SecUnit-heavy persuasion teams, they're going to have to hope Murderbot figures out what's wrong with itself, and fast!

Yeah, this plan is... not going to work.

I love this series but unfortunately I didn’t start this latest (hopefully not last) instalment until after a bit of a break. I found it a little distractingh in the early chapters to figure out who was who. There are a lot of humans in this one and many of their characters are not developed.

Another solid Murderbot instalment

Gosh, that hearty dose of wittiness and deadpan takes, delivered by Kevin R. Free is 👌

Continued growth of Murderbot, exploring more of what it takes to be human as well as what it is to be free

This is another fantastic installment in the Murderbot series. I had to listen to it in one sitting, I just couldn't put it down! I loved the added complexity to Murderbot's mental health and personal growth. As per usual, Kevin R. Free's narration is on point!

Pulse-pounding!

Don’t try to listen to the last 2-3 hours while drifting off to sleep. Because it’s too action packed and you won’t sleep. LOL
I would recommend re reading the one before this if it’s been a while as it picks up where the previous one left off. I had some issues recalibrating my brain to where we were in the story. I’m going to go back now and re listen to the one prior to this.

Loved it.

Oh how I’ve missed Murderbot and ART snark
