Murderbot’s first novel arrives on May 5th.
But before that happens, Tor.com Publishing and the Tor.com Ebook Club are giving away ALL FOUR PREVIOUS AND OFTEN TIMES AWARD-WINNING NOVELLAS!
Martha Wells’ series chronicles the life of a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module and refers to itself (though never out loud) as “Murderbot.”
Scornful of humans, all it really wants is to be left alone to watch TV and figure out who it is.
And this week, the Tor.com Ebook Club is giving away one Murderbot novella per day!
One Book-Per-Day Will Be Available:
Monday, April 20: All Systems Red (Book 1)
Tuesday, April 21: Artificial Condition (Book 2)
Wednesday, April 22: Rogue Protocol (Book 3)
Thursday, April 23: Exit Strategy (Book 4)
Download period ends 5:59 AM ET, April 24.
Question: When is the current day’s book available until?
For 24 hours starting at 6 AM ET on the day-of.
Question: I’m having issues getting the book to open / download issues caused me to miss that day’s book!
Email ebookclub@tor.com and we’ll get you sorted.
Question: There’s a novel coming?!?
Yes! A beautiful culmination and continuation of Murderbot’s ever-humanizing journey!

Network Effect
This is awesome! I’ve read and enjoyed the first two, I will certainly be taking advantage of this. Thank you!
Thank you!

Ha, I just finished a hard copy of Artificial Condition. Thanks the others (later this week)
I just finished the first one last month and thought “I’d like to read the others!” And here you are Tor. Here. You. Are.
I bought the series for my NOOK, so I’ll download them again for my Kindle!
Hi, I selected Ebook > Kindle and it took me to the Amazon page for the first book, but it’s asking for $3.99 rather than offering it for free. Am I missing something?
Anon, the same thing happened to me, too. $3.99 (although a fair price) is NOT free…
Thanks, Tor!
Much appreciated. I’ve only heard good things about this series and I’m looking forward to reading these.
Hi everyone, make sure to download the novella(s) through our eBook Club page (where they’re free during the promotion) rather than online retailers (where they’re not.) Thanks!
