Nebula- und Hugo-Award: absolut verdient

Im Vergleich zur Fernsehadaption etwas ernster, aber dafΓΌr noch besser.
All Systems Red
by Martha Wells
The series is about an artificial construct designed as a Security Unit, which manages to override its governor unit, thus enabling it to develop independence. It calls itself Murderbot, and likes to watch unrealistic soap operas. As it spends more time with some caring humans, it starts developing feelings that it does not care for.

Interesting concept
4 stars
The concept is interesting, the story is pretty good. The writing is a bit stilted, and she treats description like it is something that happens to other people.
Rare as it is, I like the show better.

What a Fun little Treat
4 stars
"I could have become a mass murderer after I hacked my governor module, but then I realized I could access the combined feed of entertainment channels carried on the company satellites.[...]. As a heartless killing machine, I was a terrible failure.
That was a nice little entertainment. SecBot is a nice (but not new) mixture of laziness, virtues and superhuman skills and reminds me of Kvothe in the kingskiller chronicles. Thanks @reading tofu for the recommendation!

what a fun little read
it's hard to pull off a sardonic robot protagonist, and I think this did it

Fun short novel with a strong voice
4 stars
It's a short novel so I can't expect much in character development outside of the main one, but that is my one critique: I'd like to know more about the other members of the crew and their situations.
But overall it was a fun listen; engaging, interesting, suspenseful.
