Description
All Systems Red is the tense first science fiction adventure novella in Martha Wells' series The Murderbot Diaries. For fans of Westworld, Ex Machina, Ann Leckie's Imperial Raadch series, or Iain M. Banks' Culture novels.
All Systems Red tackles questions of the ethics of sentient robotics. The main character is a deadly security droid that has bucked its restrictive programming and is balanced between contemplative self-discovery and an idle instinct to kill all humans.
In a corporate-dominated spacefaring future, planetary missions must be approved and supplied by the Company. Exploratory teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids, for their own safety.
But in a society where contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, safety isn't a primary concern.
On a distant planet, a team of scientists are conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied 'droid - a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module, and refers to itself (though never out loud) as "Murderbot."
Scornful of humans, all it really wants is to be left alone long enough to figure out who it is. But when a neighboring mission goes dark, it's up to the scientists and their Murderbot to get to the truth.

Excellent 👌
The story is so great, and the narration just puts this to a whole new level of awesomeness. I listened to it in one setting, I was so hooked. Amazing, I'd totally recommend it to my friends.

Social Anxiety made interesting
Fictional material today tend to overplay the Social Anxiety card, to the point that it has become almost unbearable whenever it comes up on screen or book, and most of the time I dismiss such works of fiction because SA is more an aesthetic item than a subject that drives a narrative now.
Yet here, I enjoyed it, because finally a writer has found a nice twist to it and made it integral to a character that is relatable and full of self-reflecting qualities.
The plot was conventional yet interesting, the length was perfect and the characters were not too clichéd, the humor was good and never too much
I already downloaded the second story and looking forward to listening to it, the narrator was very good !

✨ a very good start
This was very enjoyable.
It was maybe a bit short for my taste but I know I’ll get to have way more time with the main character in the next novels so I’m okay with that.
I loved the writing and the main character and I can’t wait to read more.

Interesting start
Interesting start to the series. I will listen the rest asap but my only issue at the moment is how slow the narration is.
Overall it’s a decent listen ( I have read the book before ).

I just wish all four stories were one book...
Martha Wells tells a great story, with a fantastic protagonist that I can genuinely relate to. While many people might think of a sci fi setting and picture themselves as a dating adventure hero, I think Murderbot might be the closest thing to how I would picture myself in such a setting; uncomfortable talking to people, would rather be relaxing and enjoying books or movies than pretty much anything else, and when called upon to do battle, might just have 40-60% of my body shot off. I enjoyed every bit of the story.
The good news is that it's a short novels, so I can easily listen to it again. The bad news is that all 4 of the novellas in the series cost as much as full-length books, which means it costs 4 credits (or $ equivalent) to get as much content as you would get in 1 or 2 standard novels. That part burns a bit, but all in all, still probably worth it.

Good...but...
The story was interesting and it has a great "hook" to bring you into the story-line rather quickly, however the book falls short toward the end. Now the problem could be me...in that this appears to be an "episode" rather than an a stand alone novel. I only listen to audiobooks, so it may very well be classified as a novella or a multi-part book.
Given that it costs me 1 credit for only a little over 3 hours of listening; I don't think I will be continuing on with the other episodes. The story and performance just don't seem worth the time/money when I could spend that same credit on 11+ hours of some riveting story.

I LOVE MURDERBOT
This book was just what I needed to get my out of a recent listening rut. I had been pouring through longer literary fiction type stuff that was really heady and then I started this on a whim and it was a sheer delight.
The world-building is immaculate, the plot is solid and well-paced, but most importantly MURDERBOT. S/HE is the man. I'm assuming he's a man because of the narrator's voice, but I think he's just an asexual SEC Unit that is supposed to be a killing machine but just wants to watch movies.
So relateable. And I just really love how Martha Wells crafts the environment kind of secondarily, you don't even notice that she is describing and explaining details about the world because it all takes a back seat to Murderbot's sardonic, sarcastic observations.
I had only two issues with this story.
1. It is too short
2. The ending is abrupt! It could have been flushed out a lot more, but just kind of cut off.
Now I'm left hoping for a sequel, hopefully one that has a little more meat, because this stuff is delicious.

This series is 12 hours for $40.
interesting book could have been flushed out a bit more. 3 hours for over $10 it was a bit ridiculous. Each book in the four-part series is 3 hours. That's $40 for 12 hours of listening. Quite expensive and frankly it feels like a gimmick or a trick. I won't buy any more until they come out in a single Book for a better price. Be warned.

Three hours, really?
interesting story, but at a mere three hours long, the characters didn't get developed enough for me. Not a bad book, just a short book. To paraphrase Randy Newman, "Short novels got no reason to live"

Where’s the rest of the book?
This book is amazing, but it’s like the beginning of a story. This book is a novella not a novel! I know I would highly enjoy this series, but I will not be buying the next book and paying full price for a 150ish page book.

All Systems Red does not disappoint.
All Systems Red is the first Murderbot Diary, the adventures of a cyborg security unit who hacked its governor module, named itself “Murderbot” and promptly got addicted to streaming media.
This is its account of its adventures trying to keep a group of human scientists alive on a hostile and unknown world without them figuring out it has free will and leaving itself enough time to watch its soaps. The novella is sharp and witty, with a wry sense of humor and a sharp eye for what makes someone sentient and how freedom doesn’t always mean the same thing to different beings.
Kevin R Free as the narrator does a decent job, but somehow seems to miss the point of Murderbot. Murderbot sounds like a human in its own head, it’s a cyborg, it only pretends to be a robot for the humans. Free has it acting robotic all the time and I thought that made the wry humor a little harder to enjoy. Still it’s a great story with well-rounded characters and I recommend the print and audible versions highly.

A robot too human and humans too robotic
I rarely write a negative review. This book has earned it. The plot was uninteresting and the characters were completely undeveloped and lacking personality. The robot behaved completely human like a brooding teenager from a YA novella.
The narrator appears as uninspired as the book and lacks the energy to bring these anorexic characters to life.
The positive criticism I can provide is that I am glad it was such a short book because I was agonizingly aware of the passage of time. Very disappointed with this purchase.

Great story, but.... unabridged???
This is the first review I've ever taken the time to write. I really enjoyed this story and it has a lot of potential, but I kept checking to see if I had accidentally skipped a chapter or whether the audiobook had kept playing in the background when I wasn't listening. The catalog description claims this is an unabridged recording, but it absolutely feels like its missing pieces of the story. So now after finishing the book 1, I feel a little cheated by the author and audible. This story has really great potential, but I feel like its missing a lot of detail and I often felt like I missed the first half of the chapter. This caused confusion as my mind raced to try and fill in the gaps which only resulted in paying less attention to the narrative. I have no reason to believe this won't continue for the remaining three books. I feel as though Audible could have easily combined all
four into a single book and charged a single credit. All combined only about 12 hours of listening and this feels about right for a single credit. There are certainly many other excellent books available that are much longer than this.
Now I'm definitely unsure whether I will continue listening to the next 3 unless they are on sale for half price or less.

Murderbot needs new voice
This book, when read, is lively, highly intelligent, incredibly fun read. Somehow, this narrator sucks all of that joy out of it, and his obvious struggles with the names of the other characters is an issue. There's no *life* to this character who, for all that he is indeed a robot, is incredibly alive. Deeply sarcastic, the voice in my head when I read the book is full of intelligence, deadpan line delivery, perfect timing and wit. This narrator isn't. Please, please redo this book with the narrator it deserves. Wil Wheaton? Peter Kenney? So many other choices... but this one does this story, which deserves to shine, no favors.

Viel zu kurz!
An sich kein schlechtes Buch. Wenn man alle 4 Teile in ein Buch zusammen fassen würde, sichersich sogar ein gutes Buch. Aber 4 Kapitel (!) eines Buches als 4 einzelne Bücher zu verkaufen ist schlicht nicht ok. Das ist kein ganzes Guthaben Wert!

serial not novel
i find it difficult to rate this because i liked both the story and speaker. the problem is the format. i listened to the first two "books" in this series and while they are a complete portion of a story, they definitely lack the completed feeling of a novel or even one book in a trilogy. it's more like a serial; small teasers of the overall story inserted into the current adventure leaving you feeling unsatisfied and craving more at the end.
this would actually be fine if the story is good enough. i don't dislike it. i would just like to know what it is before getting invested. the important part, though, and the reason i've given a low rating is that i'm unwilling to pay 10 euro for each 3-4 hour installment of audio serial. make the price more reasonable and i'm in.

Wonderful and refreshing book, but badly narrated
Loved the book - refreshing, fascinating, captivating.
Love the whole series so far (5 Books).
Sadly the narration was totally not to my liking. The narrator has a pleasant voice but it's intonation and reflection of emotions did not match the content at all for me. I had to stop midway before it ruined my good memories of this book. Something that hasn't happened too often before :(

surprise gem
I loved it. This is science fiction at its most poignant and inventive. As sad as it is beautiful, it feels like an indie gem you were always glad you found and then spend all your time trying to get your nerd mates to read it too!

Highly enjoyable short SciFi novel
It might be too short for a full credit (as it’s just a bit over three hours) but I got it with one of the special abos that Amazon run for Audible.
I found it very enjoyable, has a good amount of plot for such a short story, with good tense scenes and humour. I think I mixed some of the humans up from time to time but that always happens to me.
I liked the reader's voice too. Hit the right tones for Murderbot in my opinion.

Fun listen!
I had read this book a few years ago - was fun listening to it again. The story isn‘t too spectacular, but it is a nice break to have lovable character who like each other and take an outsider into their midst. Very positive vibes!

Simple, non imaginative
Not much to explore here.
Simple language in use of an even simpler story.
Not really much science happening in this story. And fiction would be to imagine this being any better.

Tolle Kurzgeschichte…
…die Lust auf mehr macht, aber in sich abgeschlossen ist.
Der Sprecher ist gut zu verstehen und hat einen angenehmen Lesestil.
