"Martha Wells's Hugo, Nebula, Alex, and Locus Award-winning, New York Times and USA Today bestselling series, The Murderbot Diaries, comes to a thrilling conclusion in Exit Strategy. Murderbot wasn't programmed to care. So, its decision to help the only human who ever showed it respect must be a system glitch, right? Having traveled the width of the galaxy to unearth details of its own murderous transgressions, as well as those of the GrayCris Corporation, Murderbot is heading home to help Dr. Mensah--its former owner (protector? friend?)--submit evidence that could prevent GrayCris from destroying more colonists in its never-ending quest for profit. But who's going to believe a SecUnit gone rogue? And what will become of it when it's caught?"--provided by publisher.

A reunion with the characters from the first book & a satisfying conclusion that is still left open for sequels (which indeed there are).

The fourth in a series of short stories. Not sure what you expect but I can tell you it won’t be that. Great entertaining series and would love to see more of them in the future.

I found this installment to be a bit drier than previous installments.

This series is a wild ride which I got hooked into from the first book. Murderbot is a character you can really get under the skin of if you're as sarcastic as I am.

Highly recommend getting all four books up front, you'll be reading them all!

The final Murderbot novella comes full circle as Murderbot meets up again with the team that started it all in the first novella. Our soap opera addicted SecUnit bot has valuable information about the GrayCris corporation and their illegal activities, and in response they have kidnapped Dr. Mensah, the hippie-vibes scientist who let Murderbot go despite knowing it had hacked its governor module. Of course Murderbot has to go and rescue the humans it feels responsible for.

Well rounded finale, all in all super-enjoyable. My only complaint is possibly that the worldbuilding is not in-depth enough for me. I want to know about this galaxy and power structures. Would be happy to read more in this setting.

I was excited for the latest Murderbot novella and it didn't disappoint. I really enjoyed watching Murderbot be hyper competent and recklessly throw itself to the defense of humans it can't admit that it likes. Looking forward to the novel.
