"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.

I've kind of been hopping about the Murderbot books, so I'm just going through them chronologically now. I had missed this one in my earlier readings, but now I realize it's kind of the tonal "key" to the shift in SecUnit's attitudes in Network Effect.

The ending of Exit Strategy is such a great payoff. It's so understated and compassionate. I loved it.

Book was great, way too short though.

Review of 'Exit Strategy' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

I just don’t get tired of Murderbot as a character. Plus, now that the world building and characters are more established, it’s easier to follow the plot, which was something I found a little difficult in the first two books. I cannot wait to keep reading this series!
