Continuing in the Hugo read, and wow is there a lot to read and watch in this list, I'm going to be hard pressed to get through all of this. I'm going to concentrate on the modern Hugo nominees first, helped by the packet. I'm trying to cycle between lengths; mostly so I don't end up with a lot of...
I'm so happy with this series. So much fast fun. Also, the general attitude bot has towards humanity is such a refreshing one. I enjoyed the buddy duo/opposite personalities taking on a mission that this volume embraced too.
Series: Murderbot #2 This was an okay installment in the Murderbot series. It would have worked much better as part of a longer novel, but as a novella it can't really stand on its own. Don't get me wrong; I like Murderbot when they're doing Murderbotty things and running commentary on the stupidi...
Shit went down yesterday, and let's just leave it as I was super, super messed up for a large chunk of today, okay? Regardless of my fucked-up-ness, I managed to get through the end of Artificial Condition, and man, I kinda forget just how awesome Murderbot is until I pick up the book again. L...
This review can also be found at Carole's Random Life in Books.I had a lot of fun with this story! This installment is my favorite of the three that are currently available in the series. I had kind of wondered where the series was going after the way the previous installment wrapped up but I truste...

It slows down the reading and speeds up the need to think, both within and across books (intert...
Is anti-social sole passenger partners with ship AI to solve a mystery a new genre? Because the two best novellas I've read this year are both in it. A follow-up to the Nebula Award winning All Systems Red, this novella is a fun ride. This time, the murderbot wants to just watch some shows and fi...
This continues straight on from Murderbot's decision about his future at the end of "All Systems Red"and carries with it all the strength of Murderbot's not-smart-enough-to-be-AI and not-socially-and-emotionally-mature-enough-to-be-human personality. Martha Wells' writing remains tight and finely ...
This is the second installment of the Murderbot Diaries, which extends the world building we saw in All Systems Red. Murderbot is a wonderfully realised (and developing) main character. Artificial Condition is a beautifully written, sometimes amusing, and exciting action/adventure/mystery novella ...
More Murderbot! If you enjoyed All Systems Red then you will enjoy this new installment in the continuing adventures of Murderbot. Using the same snarky and awkward voice we've come to love, the Murderbot gets a little more information on its history and meets some new characters along the way. I pa...
