Episode: 69 – [Review] All Systems Red

An AI security unit with a hacked governor module, a group of scientists in danger, and a machine that would rather watch TV than save humanity.Sounds like the beginning of a typical sci-fi story… except Murderbot is probably the least interested hero you’ll ever meet.In this episode of Paperback Friends, I dive into Martha Wells’ All Systems Red, the first novella in The Murderbot Diaries. We discuss what makes Murderbot such an interesting character, how Wells handles artificial intelligence, and why sometimes a story doesn’t need to reinvent the wheel to be great.This series has me excited, you can expect much more from it as the podcast chugs along.Type: Review | Book: All Systems Red | Writer: Martha Wells
