All Systems Red is a 2017 science fiction novella by American author Martha Wells. The first in a series called The Murderbot Diaries, it was published by Tor.com. The series is about an artificial construct designed as a Security Unit, which manages to override its governor unit, thus enabling it to develop independence. It calls itself Murderbot, and likes to watch unrealistic soap operas. As it spends more time with some caring humans, it starts developing feelings that it does not care for.
Como es cortito se me ha hecho bastante ameno, el ritmo es bueno y el misterio está bien desarrollado. Necesita a carretadas más trabajo de detallar al reparto porque con suerte distinguía a tres. Especialmente evidente con el personaje principal, que acaba siendo un par de tópicos repetidos hasta la saciedad en vez de tener una personalidad de verdad.
Muy entretenido, desde luego.
I LOVED All Systems Red. Murderbot might be my new favorite character in all of Sci-Fi. I had to read this for my first grad school class at Emerson, and it was an overall winner. Highly recommended if you like Sci-Fi, or if you like character-driven stories that are quick-paced, with decent action and good suspense. I will most definitely be adding the other Murderbot books to my TBR pile.
I read this a couple weeks ago and could tell you approximately nothing about the plot! I remember having a nice time reading it? It's short, which is to its credit. There is some stuff about untrustworthy corporations, and the main character is a robot whose robot-ness seems to be a metaphor for neurodivergence of some kind? I don't know. It never really came together but also, hey, it was short.
This was nice. Extremely pulp, but managed to get at some larger ideas.
