“Murderbot will make you laugh and punch you in the feels a fair few times … I will always look forward to more Murderbot adventures.” ―The Nerd Daily

Network Effect:
A Murderbot Novel (The Murderbot Diaries Book 5) 

The first full-length novel in Martha Wells’ New York Times and USA Today bestselling Murderbot Diaries series.

“I caught myself rereading my favorite parts… and I can’t recommend it enough.” — New York Times

You know that feeling when you’re at work, and you’ve had enough of people, and then the boss walks in with yet another job that needs to be done right this second or the world will end, but all you want to do is go home and binge your favorite shows? And you’re a sentient murder machine programmed for destruction? Congratulations, you’re Murderbot.

Come for the pew-pew space battles, stay for the most relatable A.I. you’ll read this century.

—

I’m usually alone in my head, and that’s where 90 plus percent of my problems are.

When Murderbot’s human associates (not friends, never friends) are captured and another not-friend from its past requires urgent assistance, Murderbot must choose between inertia and drastic action.

Drastic action it is, then.

At the Publisher’s request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
