Publisher's Summary

The third thrilling book in the increasingly popular Murderbot Diaries, which began with All Systems Red.

Sci-fi's favorite antisocial AI is back on a mission. The case against the too-big-to-fail GrayCris Corporation is floundering, and more importantly, authorities are beginning to ask more questions about where Dr. Mensah's SecUnit is.

And Murderbot would rather those questions went away. For good.

Martha Wells' Rogue Protocol is the third in the Murderbot Diaries series, starring a humanlike android who keeps getting sucked back into adventure after adventure, though it just wants to be left alone, away from humanity and small talk.

I love everything about this series

This story is hysterical, honest, and at times truly heartbreaking. I love Murderbot. An incredibly insightful non-human who’s all-too-human in all the ways it counts. Brilliant writing, wonderfully narrated. I’m recommending it to everyone who needs some clever levity in their lives. More Murderbot please!!

My favorite series ever.

I listen to a lot of random audiobooks. This is the only series that I re-listen to.

Fun and Trouble

Murderbot returns with new friends and new problems in this exciting, adventure filled sci fi story, this time with new humans to protect, new reluctant friends to make, and new trouble to cause.

This time, Murderbot encounters a friendly robot named Miki who brings it to the other humans its protecting, therefore dragging Murderbot into another reluctant adventure at pretending to be human.

The story is packed with fun and shenanigans, along with Murderbot's signature grumpy behaviour. All it wants to do is watch shows!

There are some fun twists in this fast paced story and I can't want to see what sort of trouble Murderbot gets into next!

Exciting and Fun

This series of short novelettes has a lot to like
They are fun, exciting sci-fi stories that are extremely well read. My only negative is the completely unnecessary swearing, including periodic f-bombs. I wish there was a clean version for families.

Fun story to sink into :)

Love these stories! Easy to listen to and not too long can easily listen in one sitting while driving. Love this narrator too, makes the story even better!

Great Series!

Even more fun than the last, these books keeping getting better and better. Still not quite paced the way I want them to be, but they have such a good charm to them that it makes up for it! I love the wit and charm of MurderBot and all the human characters just add a little bit more to the story. I can’t wait to read more!
