Summary
After many successful missions as mutual administrative assistance, SecUnit and ART liberate yet another planet right before Ratthi's birthday. After the celebration ART has a solo cargo ride and SecUnit stays with his PrexAux humans until is time to go with Amena to his next semester to the University of Mihira. Five cycles after ART departed, Three comes back to PresAux with Holism. A video has been circulating through one of the content's creators platforms of the Corporation Rim. The video shows a sentient ship being tortured, its body disassembled and thrown to a black hole. A very familiar ship: ART. The Corporation's Rim vengeance has been ruthless but they can't imagine how creative with vengeance a rogue SecUnit can be. They are solely mistaken if they think it would be that easy to end the Asshole Research Transport.

Summary
The brain glitches static screaming horror again, but whatever. Whatever.
"Why is it staring like that? Does it know what’s going to happen to it?"
"It got wiped this morning: it doesn’t know shit. It’s just been born and it’s already fucked up and getting melted down same day. Happy birthday, defective baby fuckup…"I have lived one day. That is how long a Unit lives. Happy birthday.

Murderbot is recaptured by the company and has its memory wiped and governor module reinstalled.
On the worst (and so far as it knows, only) day of its life, someone from its (forgotten) past comes to the rescue. Someone who believes in the Magic of Friendship, and wants Murderbot to believe too!
[:)](If Murderbot ever gets its memory back, this is going to be... awkward.)

Summary
We were coming back from another successful espionage mission when ART identified a person floating alone in the middle of f**king nowhere space and of course the crew insisted we help. But the drifter (literally) is stranger than we’d initially thought and so is his weird pet AI… thing. I’m certain nothing bad will happen. But when does anyone ever listen to me?
...
Max and Steel get thrust through an accidentally interdimensional portal into the world of Murderbot Diaries and unfortunately brought along a few ultralinks too.

Summary
"It's wrong to think of a construct as half bot, half human. It makes it sound like the halves are discrete, like the bot half should want to obey orders and do its job and the human half should want to protect itself and get the hell out of here. As opposed to the reality, which was that I was one whole confused entity, with no idea what I wanted to do."
Six months into its new life aboard the Perihelion, Murderbot has settled into a comfortably aloof routine with its mutual administrative assistant, ART. Then a new crew member arrives and a survey mission goes catastrophically wrong, uncovering a corporate conspiracy that hits closer to home than anyone expected. As events spiral out of control, a harrowing mystery, the indifferent cruelty of the Corporation Rim and (ugh) its own inconvenient emotions all conspire to force Murderbot to reevaluate what it really wants from the universe and what it means to live in a world of bots and humans when you're neither.

Summary
It is with great relief that I exit the wormhole into the home space of the Pan System Alliance. Familiar neutrinos brush against my hull, lighting up my sensor array in a comforting way. I immediately receive three pings from members of my cohort who are in range. I return the pings merely to be polite, but ignore any further initiation of conversation. I am really not in the mood to be interrogated about my recent mishap.

Summary
One Construct, on a Secret Mission to destroy evil and protect its humans, must face hostile raiders, Super-Intelligent AI, and its own complex identity in this heart stopping action thriller!
Or: What might Murderbot and Perihelion’s escapades look like to a construct from the outside? Probably a lot more terrifying than they realize.

Summary
Some things are less gross when it's someone you care about. Some things aren't.
But sex can be many things, as Murderbot finds out, and some of them don't even involve touching.
It's even better when Gurathin chooses to do everything it says.(Part of a series but can be read stand alone.)

Summary
A ping from the void grabbed my full attention, Check Your Inventory.
What?
I check again, but there was still no feed. Nowhere the ping could have come from. The devices the humans had in their hands didn't have the clarity of the message I'd just received. My inventory? I started checking my pockets cautiously. I paused.
There was something in my back pocket. I pulled it out. It was made of some kind of animal skin. Inside were two hard plastic cards. Written on one of them was "Hunter's License. E-Rank." with a picture of my face.
Or: Murderbot wakes up in Korea. It's probably System's fault if we're being real.

SecUnit did something horrible, but its memory of the event was completely wiped. All that’s left is a volatile audio file. If it wants to know what happened, it will have to listen to the file the old-fashioned way—out loud.

Summary
The graphics are shitty. The storyline is shitty. Three fucking loves it. Of course it does. Its taste is shitty.
(Three likes children's media. Murderbot has opinions.)

Company SecUnits’ inorganic parts were made out of cheap, mass-produced materials. Murderbot’s were no exception. Defects and malfunctions were an expected side effect of being constructed from such materials.

Summary
Maybe you want to fully understand what it means to be human.
I don’t, I responded quickly. And besides, I will never be human.
No. But you can get close. Closer than you are now, at least. Can’t you?
