Exploratory teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids, for their own safety.But in a society where contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, safety isnt a primary concern.On a distant planet, a team of scientists are conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied droid - a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module, and refers to itself (though never out loud) as "Murderbot." Scornful of humans, all it really wants is to be left alone long enough to figure out who it is (and to watch its favorite show in its downtime.)But when a neighboring mission goes dark, its up to the scientists and their Murderbot to get to the truth.

Her New York Times bestselling Murderbot Diaries series has won the Alex and Nebula Awards and been shortlisted for others. Review Praise for The Murderbot Diaries series "I love Murderbot!" --Ann Leckie "The Murderbot series is a heart-pounding thriller that never lets up, but its also one of the most humane portraits of a nonhuman Ive ever read. Come for the gunfights on other planets, but stay for the finely drawn portrait of a deadly robot whose smartass goodness will give you hope for the future of humanity." --Annalee Newitz, author of Autonomous "We are all a little bit Murderbot... we see ourselves in its skin. And that reading about this sulky, soap-opera-loving cyborg killing machine might be one of the most human experiences you can have in sci-fi right now.."--NPR"Clever, inventive, brutal when it needs to be, and compassionate without ever being sentimental." --Kate Elliott, author of the Spirit Walker trilogy "Endearing, funny, action-packed, and murderous." --Kameron Hurley, author of The Stars are Legion "Not only a fun, fast-paced space-thriller, but also a sharp, sometimes moving character study that will resonate with introverts even if theyre not lethal AI machines." --Malka Older, author of Infomocracy "Wells gives depth to a rousing but basically familiar action plot by turning it into the vehicle by which SecUnit engages with its own rigorously denied humanity." --Publishers Weekly starred review "I already cant wait for the next one." --The Verge Promotional For the first time in hardcover, the first entry in Martha Wells New York Times and USA Today bestselling, Alex and Nebula Award-winning series The Murderbot Diaries.
