The fourth and final part of the Murderbot Diaries series that began with All Systems Red.

Murderbot wasn't programmed to care. So its decision to help the only human who ever showed it respect must be a system glitch, right?

Having traveled the width of the galaxy to unearth details of its own murderous transgressions, as well as those of the GrayCris Corporation, Murderbot is heading home to help Dr. Mensah - its former owner (protector? friend?) - submit evidence that could prevent GrayCris from destroying more colonists in its never-ending quest for profit.

But who's going to believe a SecUnit gone rogue? And what will become of it when it's caught?

Really enjoying the evolution of Murderbot. Even though the price for these one afternoon reads on Amazon is crazy, I’m about to download the next one.

Hugely entertaining! I only discovered this series last week and I'm totally hooked. Finished the 4th book and can't wait to start the next. This would make a fantastic TV series, it's exciting, funny and has some great characters.

Murderbot finds a home.

Perhaps I'm just feeling tender, but this one made me cry. Murderbot deals with its emotions reluctantly, and I relate to its confusion about what emotion a given sensation hails.

Great character development, with terrific escalating action scenes, plus surprising humanity and empathy and self-analysis from a human-clone-parts augmented cybernetic organism.

Though some of these are on the shorter size, roughly 170 pages. It is well paced and exciting to read. I thoroughly enjoyed them all. Waiting on the sixth to drop next April (2021).

So much joy

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on October 22, 2018

Murderbot brings me such pure, unadulterated joy. SO MUCH JOY. Read all of the novellas - none disppoint -with Exit Strategy concluding the series with tons of laughs and a satisfying reunion of the characters from the first book. Wells folds Murderbot's trademark wry narration into nonstop action and suspense, and, yup lots of heart-warming/hilarious moments.

Outrageously expensive

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on November 23, 2018

Murderbot diaries is one book separated into 4 short stories. Each one takes about 2 hours to read. The silly price is a great shame because the book is excellent. Martha Wells could draw in a huge fanbase if she sold this as one book or simply priced it as 4 short stories. Instead, people will feel bad about the books; nobody likes to be ripped off. This would have been a 5 star review, but I feel I must reduce it to 3 stars because of the pricing.

The central character is highly original and robots have never been characterised so well since Iain Banks. He is a human/robot construct who should be under control from his programming but has managed to hack the program to have some free will in his decisions. He goes on to have a different adventure in each of the 4 stories and save people from the evil, stop-at-nothing-for-profit, mega-corporation, making some decent friends with people/bots that he meets on the way. If you like hard SF with realistically-drawn future technology then you will like this.

Wait until the price goes down before buying and read “Sea of Rust” or “Windup Girl” or any of Bank's Culture Series books (such as “Player of Games” or “Excession”) in the meantime. These are all excellent full-size books which contain well-characterised drones/robots and they are all sold at a reasonable price.

Good, but overpriced.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on November 13, 2018

Verified Purchase

It’s a decent story but it’s a short story priced as if it was a full length novel. Having been sucked in I’ve bought all 4 as I hate leaving a good story - and it is a good story, and well written - unfinished.
That said I’d advise avoiding this until the price of the four books is the same as the average length novel they will then represent. I will certainly not be buying any more Martha Wells at this kind of price (just under £6 each) in future. And that includes further outings, if any, for the murderbot.

Your mileage may vary of course, but I’m not encouraging this kind of pricing with my money.

Great Story - But Only Part of the Book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 23, 2019

Verified Purchase

Martha Wells has created a wonderful character in 'Murderbot' and the books are excellent to read. Well written, engaging characterisation and flowing story with enough action to keep the pace up.

All well and good but the truth is that these are not really books. The entire series could be folded into one decent sized book that would justify the price. Instead what you really pay for is a few chapters of that big book for a premium price.

The wonder of it is that I have continued to do so. I guess Martha Wells is a great author in the genre.

However, this is the last time I do it. Whilst I love the 'books' the price is ridiculous for what amounts to little more than a novella. The story is a five star one but the excessive costs push it to one star. So three stars is a reasonable weighting for this overall I feel.

A satisfying end to the series (so far)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 5, 2019

Verified Purchase

Murderbot is back in their last (for now) adventure and damn, is it a good one. In this novella Murderbot heads home to help rescue Dr. Mensah, their companion and friend from book one. On the way they run up against their old enemy GreyCris Corporation and all sorts of fun and games ensue.

This is the fourth in Martha Wells' series and a more than satisfying ending to the story started in All Systems Red. The main character (the aforementioned Murderbot) has grown and developed so much since that first book and just keeps getting better. They have learned how to mimic human mannerisms, how to blend in with crowds without wanting to kill everyone and, more importantly, how to care about humans. They even have to deal with those pesky emotional responses every now and then, which isn't exactly what Murderbot wants but for some reason they can't make them stop.

If you haven't read any of the Murderbot Diaries yet I'd strongly recommend you start with book one. This is character driven sci-fi at its best and includes some ridiculously well-written action sequences. I could easily see this getting turned into a TV series at some point (fingers crossed), and I can't wait for the novel that's due to drop next year.

zips smartly along

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 1, 2020

Verified Purchase

Murderbot finally has the evidence that will take down GrayCris Corp. But Dr Mensah is being held hostage by the Corporation. Can Murderbot deliver the evidence and save Dr Mensah? And why does Murderbot even want to do this?

This final novella in the Murderbot series zips smartly along like all the others, and ties back neatly with the characters from the first instalment. Murderbot continues to be snarky, and continues to run rings around tech defences. This being the last instalment, there are several times where it is not at all clear how things are going to pan out. There is a satisfactory conclusion, but I do want to see more Murderbot tales, and maybe in meatier novel for next?
