With a road trip on the horizon, I combed through my long TBR list to find a sci-fi that hubby and I could read as we drove. <i>All Systems Red</i> checked all the boxes and kept us at full-attention.
It may be a novella but it packs a punch—and we are very glad that, when I borrowed this from the library, I had the foresight to download the second volume in the series at the same time.

All Systems Red written by Martha Wells produced by Graphic Audio is the dramatized adaptation of the first book in the Murderbot Diaries series of the same name, All Systems Red. This is the story of an android SecUnit named Murderbot who's hacked their governor module so they can watch their favorite show, or serial. Murderbot wants nothing more than to be left alone but when a mission goes sideways, they have to get involved with the humans they're there to protect.
I enjoyed the original novella, All Systems Red by Martha Wells. It was really interesting and a bit funny, I instantly liked Murderbot. The dramatized adaptation gives each character a voice actor and that adds so much charm to the story and the characters. I really enjoyed the story and the characters, it kind of makes me sad that
Overall, the dramatized adaptation was entertaining, action filled, and funny. I enjoyed the time I spent listening to Murderbot and their crew of specialists. I'm excited to hear about what they get into next. I'm giving it 5 stars out of 5.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - 5/5 Stars
I listened to this for free on [Hoopladigital.com]

The story centers around 'Murderbot,' a security android that gets rented out to different projects. While working on a planet with a survey team, Murderbot and the entire group get pulled into a dangerous situation that threatens their lives. Murderbot will have to learn how to work together with the humans that surround them to try and get off the planet in one piece.
Wells does a great job of quickly establishing a character that it is easy to care for. Murderbot just wants to watch entertainment shows and read books all day, which makes them relatable. Despite this, they do take their job seriously. Their slowly growing friendship with the humans while dealing with a difficult situation creates an engaging, fun read. The scope of the story fit the length and the ending leaves things open for future installments while also working as a good ending if one only wished to read the one book. I completely understand why people love this series and I will definitely be picking up more installments.
