Artificial Condition is the follow-up to Martha Wells's Hugo, Nebula, Alex, and Locus Award-winning, New York Times bestselling All Systems Red.

It has a dark past—one in which a number of humans were killed. A past that caused it to christen itself “Murderbot”. But it has only vague memories of the massacre that spawned that title, and it wants to know more.

Teaming up with a Research Transport vessel named ART (you don’t want to know what the “A” stands for), Murderbot heads to the mining facility where it went rogue.

What it discovers will forever change the way it thinks…

Performed by David Cui Cui, Elena Anderson, Alejandro Ruiz, Bradley Foster Smith, Carolyn Kashner, Eric Messner, Jeri Marshall, Ken Jackson, Marni Penning, Michael John Casey, Rayner Gabriel, Scott McCormick, Shanta Parasuraman and Yasmin Tuazon.

I’ve read this book before, and I listened to the first book in the series, read by a single narrator. It was very much better than this. This is the first Dramatized Adaptation that I have listened to. I actually had to give up and buy the single narrator version because SecUnit (the main character) doesn’t enunciate clearly. He drops Ts and garbles the ends of words and is just generally reading so quickly that he makes piles of mistakes. I just barely got to the part with the sentient transport and her performance was great but I just couldn’t listen to the main character any longer.

SecUnits should enunciate better

5 Stars, Fantastic ! If borrowed it from the library I will buy it for a re-read. Hopefully there is a series because just one was not enough.

I love the narration and performance, just feels perfect. In addition to the narration the story itself just feels like the perfect continuation. The growth of MB and his journey while dealing with social anxiety and self discovery has me just hooked. It’s well written with just enough humor while still being able to Take it seriously.

This is a great next chapter in the series

Murderbot is ingenious and loyal to a fault. I really like the guy and I like the Apple TV series too.

Very human

One of the best things about a book you can’t put down is the amazing story and journey that you go upon within your own mind. Sadly, now the story is over as I have binge the entire series. I hope that the author continues to write more. I will have to wait to see.

Just wow!

... Kevin R Free's performance in the original is just 1000 times better. If you are new to Murderbot, check out the original audiobook series first.

The dramatization is perfectly ok...
