A murderous android discovers itself inĀ All Systems Red, a tense science fiction adventure by Martha Wells that interrogates the roots of consciousness through Artificial Intelligence.
"As a heartless killing machine, I was a complete failure."
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 isnāt a primary concern.
On a distant planet, a team of scientists are conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied ādroid ā a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module, and refers to itself (though never out loud) as āMurderbot.ā 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.
