Can't Wait For . . . Network Effect by Martha Wells


Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hoste at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they're books that have yet to be released. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. If you're continuing with WOW, feel free to link those up as well! Find out more here.


I am getting so excited for a full length novel in the Murderbot Diaries series.  I was at one point a hesitant Sci-Fi reader but I cannot get enough of this novella series. Now we are getting a full length novel in it! I think I am going to re-read books 1-4 this next month in preparation for Network Effect's release.




Network Effect by Martha Wells
Release Date: May 5, 2020


**** DON'T READ UNLESS YOU ARE CURRENT WITH THE SERIES,
MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS ****

Synopsis: "Murderbot returns in its highly-anticipated, first, full-length standalone novel.

You know that feeling when you’re at work, and you’ve had enough of people, and then the boss walks in with yet another job that needs to be done right this second or the world will end, but all you want to do is go home and binge your favorite shows? And you're a sentient murder machine programmed for destruction? Congratulations, you're Murderbot.

Come for the pew-pew space battles, stay for the most relatable A.I. you’ll read this century.
I’m usually alone in my head, and that’s where 90 plus percent of my problems are.

When Murderbot's human associates (not friends, never friends) are captured and another not-friend from its past requires urgent assistance, Murderbot must choose between inertia and drastic action.

Drastic action it is, then."





Have you ever stayed away from a specific genre only to later find a series or book that you can't get enough of in that genre?
