Praise for The Murderbot Diaries series "I love Murderbot!" --Ann
Leckie "The Murderbot series is a heart-pounding thriller that
never lets up, but it's also one of the most humane portraits of a
nonhuman I've ever read. Come for the gunfights on other planets,
but stay for the finely drawn portrait of a deadly robot whose
smartass goodness will give you hope for the future of humanity."
--Annalee Newitz, author of Autonomous "We are all a little bit
Murderbot... we see ourselves in its skin. And that reading about
this sulky, soap-opera-loving cyborg killing machine might be one
of the most human experiences you can have in sci-fi right
now.."--NPR
"Clever, inventive, brutal when it needs to be, and compassionate
without ever being sentimental." --Kate Elliott, author of the
Spirit Walker trilogy "Endearing, funny, action-packed, and
murderous." --Kameron Hurley, author of The Stars are Legion "Not
only a fun, fast-paced space-thriller, but also a sharp, sometimes
moving character study that will resonate with introverts even if
they're not lethal AI machines." --Malka Older, author of
Infomocracy "Wells gives depth to a rousing but basically familiar
action plot by turning it into the vehicle by which SecUnit engages
with its own rigorously denied humanity." --Publishers Weekly
starred review "I already can't wait for the next one." --The Verge
