Historia
All Systems Red is the tense first science fiction adventure novella in Martha Wells' series The Murderbot Diaries. For fans of Westworld, Ex Machina, Ann Leckie's Imperial Raadch series, or Iain M. Banks' Culture novels. The main character is a deadly security droid that has bucked its restrictive programming and is balanced between contemplative self-discovery and an idle instinct to kill all humans.

Absolutely Everything I Want in Sci-Fi

Short and sweet, I'm eager to listen to the rest of the Murderbot Diaries if they're as entertaining as this one.

Historia
Among the ashes of a dying world, an agent of the Commandment finds a letter. It reads: Burn before reading. Thus begins an unlikely correspondence between two rival agents hellbent on securing the best possible future for their warring factions. Now, what began as a taunt, a battlefield boast, becomes something more. Something epic. Something romantic. Something that could change the past and the future. Except the discovery of their bond would mean the death of each of them. There’s still a war going on, after all. And someone has to win. That’s how war works, right?

Fully Deserved of its Award
Revisado: 06-07-20
The beautiful language of this novel makes it an absolute must read. A fierce love story told through strands of time with too many memorable lines to count. An absolute must read for any science fiction fan. The audiobook performance is also one of the best I’ve ever had the privilege to listen to.

Historia
For centuries, the mysterious dark-robed figure has roamed the globe, searching for those whose complicity and cowardice have fed into the rapids of history’s darkest waters - and now it is heading in our direction.It has been years since Helen Franklin left England. In Prague, working as a translator, she has found a home of sorts - or, at least, refuge. That changes when her friend Karel discovers a mysterious letter in the library, a strange confession and a curious warning that speaks of Melmoth the Witness, a dark legend found in obscure fairy tales and antique village lore.

Interesting Point of View and Theme
Revisado: 06-19-19
At times the narrator was hard to follow as the points of view weave in and out, switching from character to character. If you don’t mind an omniscient narrator who addresses the reader and has an I slip in once or twice, then this won’t be an issue for you. I did want this book to end and get somewhere, so the pacing is a bit slow at times.
But it’s really at its best with believable characters and motivations, even those we only see snippets of. The mystery and prevailing question throughout are what drive this novel, and it doesn’t disappoint in that regard.
The performance of the audiobook is also well done. Some of the voices and delivery made me shudder.
