About this listen

The first full-length dramatized audiobook in Martha Wells' New York Times and USA Today bestselling Murderbot Diaries series.

You know that feeling when you’re at work, and you’ve had enough of people, and then the boss walks in with yet another job that needs to be done right this second or the world will end, but all you want to do is go home and binge your favorite shows? And you're a sentient murder machine programmed for destruction? Congratulations, you're Murderbot.

Come for the pew-pew space battles, stay for the most relatable A.I. you’ll hear this century.

I’m usually alone in my head, and that’s where 90 plus percent of my problems are.

When Murderbot's human associates (not friends, never friends) are captured and another not-friend from its past requires urgent assistance, Murderbot must choose between inertia and drastic action.

Drastic action it is, then.

Performed by David Cui Cui, Crystal Lee, Elena Anderson, Natalie Van Sistine, Alejandro Ruiz, Amanda Forstrom, Christopher Williams, Colleen Delany, Debi Tinsley, Emily Beresford, Eva Wilhelm, Gabriel Michael, Gail Shalan, Holly Adams, Ken Jackson, Khaya Fraites, Laura C. Harris, Lise Bruneau, Lydia Kraniotis, Marni Penning, Nick Russo, Samantha Cooper, Sarah Ruth Thomas, Scott McCormick, Shanta Parasuraman, Thomas Penny, Triya Leong, Tyler Hyrchuk, Yasmin Tuazon and Zeke Alton.

Really fun sci fi novel . Wish it was longer. The voice acting is great and the plot, revolving around humanity, freedom, anti capitalism is pretty great and refreshing. The 15 word limit is so tedious

The script for this adaption is terrible. This adaption cuts whole sections of conversation, but will then keep a reference to the cut section. Conversations make no sense and I can't keep track of where the characters are. I know the original text is good so it's a huge disappointment. I can't understand why this is so bad when dramatisations of earlier books in the series were fine.

Incoherent
