Exit Strategy

By: Martha Wells

Narrated by: Kevin R. Free

The fourth and final part of the Murderbot Diaries series that began with All Systems Red.

Murderbot wasn't programmed to care. So its decision to help the only human who ever showed it respect must be a system glitch, right?

Having traveled the width of the galaxy to unearth details of its own murderous transgressions, as well as those of the GrayCris Corporation, Murderbot is heading home to help Dr. Mensah - its former owner (protector? friend?) - submit evidence that could prevent GrayCris from destroying more colonists in its never-ending quest for profit.

But who's going to believe a SecUnit gone rogue? And what will become of it when it's caught?

Love this series

Murderbot Diaries are hilarious and seriously one of the best series I've listened too. The performance was great and I can't wait to hear more from the Narrator. As for Martha Wells story, I loved it. She does a great job to create a story around the perfect reluctant antihero. I would recommend this for short road trips or just hanging around.

So Very Well Written

With the last two series that I tried to listen to and could not complete, I was ready to just cancel my account. Fortunately, I happened upon this series. Since the introductory first book was at no charge, unless I wanted the dramatized version, I went forward. I am so glad that I did. One of the things I love about this series is that the main character is actually LIKEABLE! She also doesn't resort to constant profanity for it's shock value, a common go to for unimaginative authors. I am not exposed to one exhaustive sex scene after another...a recent series had to be written by a 13 yr old documenting his wet dreams.... this series, this writer... these are real stories! Each segment stands alone as a complete book, even though each new installment continues the adventures of the main character. And each new story is a delight. And I will delight in following this author! Thank you, for your talent and professionalism. Hmmm, how novel.

I love this character.

it's like listening to a reformed terminator's point of view on human beings and what they dont get about bots.

can't get enough

this is an amazing series and I truly hope it continues. I. am a sci find guy, so Martha's other works really don't speak to me. but this... wow. and then Kevin r. Free. no one could have narrated this better.

So Entertaining!

The fourth installment of the Murderbot franchise sees the return of past characters, and some interesting character growth. I'm curious to see where the story goes now that the first arc appears to have been completed, and the characters in a different social situation. I'm also curious to see if the 5th book, being a full length novel, is as riveting as the novella format.

Martha Wells does not disappoint

The murderbot diaries series is as good as the first book. The first book, all systems red, was great. Buy these books and support their author!

Love the Murderbot Diaries!

One of my favorite SF series. Can't believe it took me this long to discover Martha Wells. Kevin Free is also the perfect voice for Murderbot. More please, Martha!

Can't get enough

This book nicely rounds out the series of novellas, going full circle to wrap up the story and illustrating the growth in the character. I'm left still in love with this universe and seeing it from Murderbot's eyes.

Ultimately, I'm left with Oliver Twist's words, 'Please, sir, can I have some more?'

A Great Listen... but listen to the series first

Murderbot strikes again! I love the AI residing in Murderbot's body learning how to deal with humanity, groups of humans, and corporations (the ultimate antagonists). Martha Wells does a magnificent job of making an "aritificial" intelligence sound both artificial and very real at the same time. The plot is never predictible, always entertaining. and frequently humorous. More, and this is important to me, the book is persistently consistent with the real laws of physics or with the fictional laws of physics laid out in the series to enable the action across stars in a good, hard sifi novel.

The series is so good I listened to it twice, a true rarity for this sifi fan who eagerly awaited Heinlein's and Asimov's novels when they were first published!

Love it!

I love this book and the whole series. I have purchased them all, and can't stop listening at every chance possible!
