Yay For Murderbot!
“So, I’m awkward with actual humans. It’s not paranoia about my hacked governor module, and it’s not them; it’s me. I know I’m a horrifying murderbot, and they know it, and it makes both of us nervous, which makes me even more nervous.”
This novella was an absolute delight!
What I Loved: the witty humor, the sentient robot, and being in space. This story is a the type of sci-fi I enjoy the most. I love the exploration of another planet, the way humanity has evolved (or not), and all while being told from the perspective of the self-aware and disaffected “Murderbot”.
Audiobook narrator Kevin R. Free does a brilliant job as the deadpan voice of Murderbot, his delivery was laugh-out-loud entertainment.
A must-read for any Bobiverse fans!
