The first full-length dramatized audiobook in Martha Wells' New York Times and USA Today bestselling Murderbot Diaries series.

You know that feeling when you’re at work, and you’ve had enough of people, and then the boss walks in with yet another job that needs to be done right this second or the world will end, but all you want to do is go home and binge your favorite shows? And you're a sentient murder machine programmed for destruction? Congratulations, you're Murderbot.

Come for the pew-pew space battles, stay for the most relatable A.I. you’ll hear this century.

I’m usually alone in my head, and that’s where 90 plus percent of my problems are.

When Murderbot's human associates (not friends, never friends) are captured and another not-friend from its past requires urgent assistance, Murderbot must choose between inertia and drastic action.

Drastic action it is, then.

Performed by David Cui Cui, Crystal Lee, Elena Anderson, Natalie Van Sistine, Alejandro Ruiz, Amanda Forstrom, Christopher Williams, Colleen Delany, Debi Tinsley, Emily Beresford, Eva Wilhelm, Gabriel Michael, Gail Shalan, Holly Adams, Ken Jackson, Khaya Fraites, Laura C.

I have been steadily working my way through the dramatized adaptions and have to share how much FUN I am having in the listening. I love the full cast and special effect sounds, and think the David Cui Cui does a great job as Murderbot in his delivery.

The wonderful vocal cast

well acted. well written. I could listen to these Murderbot novellas forever. keep em coming!

Fantastic performance

As ever, Wells' story and David Cui Cui's narration/voice acting are outstanding. However, this book and Murderbot's character development arc will make more sense in the overall timeline if you read Book 6: Fugitive Telemetry *first*.

Read "Book 6" before this one!

The cast performance was good. The production edit had glitches. Repeats of segments. Edits that were left uncut when a performer said, “typo”. Audio quality was “meh”.

Very nice audio performance… but

Graphic Audio performed a fantastic production of Martha Well’s Network Effect. The actor who narrates MurderBot is perfect for the character’s inner and outer voice. The book was great and this production upped the excitement and engagement level to a 10!

Really excellent!

This was an excellent story, and it keeps my attention the entire time. The characters are great, and I love the way murder, but talks and thinks.

I love the murder bot books

The whole series is good, 100% worth the listen, but this book is the best of the series IMHO. I wish I had listened to this as book #6 not #5 though - it works better that way.

Best of the series

It's more of the same- snappy dialog, usual effort to save his humans, good production.

Enjoy the book- watch the Apple series!

Entire thing read as a dire emergency, exhausting. Good story, would have enjoyed better with different tone. Otherwise intolerable

Annoying narrative tome

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I tried to like it. I really did but it did not have the charm of the one read by Kevin Free. MB was different, the voice for ART was way too feminine, and just the voices did not match the characters which made it very difficult to listen to.

did not really enjoy this version
