About this eBook
A New York Times, Washington Post, and USA Today bestseller.
Everyone's favorite lethal SecUnit is back in the next installment in Martha Wells's bestselling and award-winning Murderbot Diaries series.
Am I making it worse? I think I'm making it worse.
Following the events in Network Effect, the Barish-Estranza corporation has sent rescue ships to a newly-colonized planet in peril, as well as additional SecUnits. But if thereās an ethical corporation out there, Murderbot has yet to find it, and if Barish-Estranza canāt have the planet, theyāre sure as hell not leaving without something. If that something just happens to be an entire colony of humans, well, a free workforce is a decent runner-up prize.
But thereās something wrong with Murderbot; it isnāt running within normal operational parameters. ARTās crew and the humans from Preservation are doing everything they can to protect the colonists, but with Barish-Estranzaās SecUnit-heavy persuasion teams, theyāre going to have to hope Murderbot figures out whatās wrong with itself, and fast!
Yeah, this plan is... not going to work.

Another great installment following everyone's favorite Murderbot. System Collapse follows directly on the heels of Network Effect, to the point where unless you remember it very well you should reread or you'll be a bit lost. Typical Murderbot shenanigans ensue with typical humor. The only downside I found to this book is that as Murderbot becomes more human, I find myself less interested. At several points in herein I found myself wondering more about 3 than Murderbot.

A bit disappointing compared to the other murderbot stories. There are large parts of the book that are compelling and flow well, but I'm left with a nagging suspicion that the author ran out of time to tell the whole story.

Once again, Wells has managed to get inside my brain and describe my experience as an autistic woman perfectly. This book inverts certain things beautifully, helping me think about trauma and choice in a new light. I stayed up all night to finish it and I have no regrets.
