Book description
Let's be real: Murderbot is the reason you're reading this. And Exit Strategy? It's the perfect storm of everything we love about this gloriously dysfunctional secunit. Martha Wells brings back her Hugo-winning, New York Times-bestselling series with a heart-pounding mission: Murderbot's racing across the galaxy to gather proof that GrayCris-those profit-hungry corporate villains-will destroy entire colonies without a second thought. All to protect Dr. Mensah, the one human who ever saw them. But let's be honest: Murderbot's not built for heroics. It's gotta be a glitch. Right?
What makes this audiobook sing? The narration. Murderbot's internal monologue-full of deadpan sarcasm, panic about being caught, and surprisingly tender moments-is perfect for audio. You hear every frustrated sigh, every panicked thought about "not being a person," and the sheer, overwhelming relief of finding someone who gets you. It's intimate, hilarious, and utterly gripping. You'll laugh at Murderbot's terrible social skills while desperately rooting for them.
And that quote from Ann Leckie? It's not just hype-it's the truth. "I love Murderbot!" That's the feeling this audiobook delivers. You'll love them too. The stakes are sky-high (literally, with space travel), the action crackles, and the emotional payoff? Unforgettable. It's not just a story about a robot; it's about finding your people, even when you're convinced you're broken. Wells makes you feel every beat, every near-miss, every quiet moment of connection. If you haven't met Murderbot yet, start with All Systems Red-but if you're already hooked, Exit Strategy is the galactic adventure you've been waiting for. Trust me, you'll be hitting play on the next one before you even finish this. (And yes, it's DRM-free. Because Murderbot deserves to be enjoyed without digital shackles.)
