I can’t wait to get the hardback for my collection. I love Murderbot and I always feel sorry for him/her. 😕. I wish MB was my real life friend 😫Mel 🖤🐶🐺🐾
Murderbot investigating an actual murder? Murderbot in a murder mystery??? Yes, please, thank. you. The snark was particularly dialed up in this one (which, hey, I'm not mad at), and special snaps to Pin-Lee and Indah as the stand out side characters this time around. All in all, a very fun novella that quenches (at least for today) my never ending thirst for all things Murderbot
[4.5/5 stars] I’ll be the first to admit that I love Murderbot so much that anything published in the series immediately gets a baseline rating of three stars… anything I find particularly amusing above and beyond expectation launches it up from there. The full-length novel (book #5) had all the Murderbot attributes but, after some distance from my initial impressions (and review), I don’t think the extended plot did the story any favors. It was a bit repetitive and could’ve benefitted from a mo...
It feels strange to give 3* to a book in one of my favorite series, but here we are, this was a disappointing read. It's not bad sci-fi, but it's definitely not up to the same standard as the rest of the series.

A locked room murder mystery with Murderbot as one of the investigators on the case, which is especially funny since this takes place on Preservation.A dead body is found on Preservation Station and Dr. Mensah commends Murderbot to help Station Security trying to figure out what happened. Why am I saying this is funny? Because Preservation is a very peaceful place with a threat assessment of 7% ("to make it drop lower than that we’d have to be on an uninhabited planet") and Murderbot who is eye-...
Five stars of course! This is a stellar addition to the Murderbot story. It is a locked room murder mystery, in that the murderer can't get off the planet. Everything is shut down until he or she or they is found. Murderbot is asked to help find the assassin by Mensah who knows how thorough and efficient the SecUnit is. The human head of security for Preservation is not thrilled to have this "violent" robot as a helper.
