Hugo and Nebula Award–winner Wells brings her solitude-craving, media-loving killer robot protagonist another step closer to independence in the entertaining sixth entry in the Murderbot Diaries series (after Network Effect). A dead body found in Preservation Station mall propels Murderbot, a SecUnit, into a new contract as a consultant in the murder investigation. Murderbot hopes to gain the refugee status that would enable it to stay in the Preservation Alliance, but it’s an uphill battle as rogue SecUnits are feared as unhinged killers—an unfounded fear in this case, as Murderbot wants nothing more than to catch up on its favorite soap opera in peace. Vexed by the illogical humans it’s forced to work with, Murderbot patiently explains its way through the clues it uncovers, and Senior Officer Indah can’t help being impressed with Murderbot’s investigative skills and surprisingly compassionate regard for life. Murderbot’s wry observations of human behavior are as humorous as ever and the mystery is thoroughly satisfying. This is another winning series installment. Agent: Jennifer Jackson, Donald Maass Literary. -

David Cui Cui once again becomes Murderbot as he performs the sixth book in the series. When a body is found on Preservation Station, Murderbot must assist investigators, who include no-nonsense, unflappable Indah, portrayed by Gail Shalan. There's also human trafficking afoot. Amid witty comments and wry asides, listeners learn all about the smuggling on space stations, along with bots and their sometimes-murderous tendencies. Cui Cui ably switches his cadence when Murderbot communicates via internal networks, when it speaks aloud to humans, and when it merely narrates the detailed story. Numerous other robots and investigators are cleverly voiced by a full cast. This intense investigation of murder and smuggling is punctuated with bangs, clangs, other mechanical sounds of battle, and sporadic mood music. M.B.K. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine
