Znacie to uczucie, gdy siedzicie w pracy, macie już dość ludzi, a wtedy wchodzi szef z kolejną robotą, którą trzeba zrobić na już, bo inaczej świat się skończy, choć jedyne czego chcecie, to iść do domu i oglądać ulubione seriale? I jesteście świadomą morderczą maszyną zaprogramowaną do destrukcji? Gratulacje, jesteście Mordbotem. Wstąpcie na kosmiczne bitwy, zostańcie SI, z którą najbardziej będziecie się identyfikować. Tak naprawdę jestem samo w swojej głowie, a to właśnie tam mieści się ponad dziewięćdziesiąt procent moich problemów. Gdy ludzcy towarzysze (nie przyjaciele, nigdy przyjaciele) Mordbota zostają schwytani, a inny nie-przyjaciel z przeszłości wymaga pilnej pomocy, Mordbot musi wybrać między bezwładem a drastycznymi działaniami. Wybiera drastyczne działania.

Für den zu einer – wenn auch wortkargen – Sicherheitseinheit umfunktionierten Killerbot droht die schlimmste Aufgabe, die man sich vorstellen kann. Sie muss (a) einen Mord auf Preservation Station aufklären (nicht so schlimm), dafür (b) mit der Stations-KI zusammenarbeiten (suboptimal, aber okay) und vor allem (c) mit Menschen reden (sehr schlimm). Als Killerbot bleibt einem auch nichts erspart …

City of Bones is a compelling fantasy adventure from the author of Murderbot. One part Tomb Raider, one part Dune, all parts classic Martha Wells. Before Martha Wells captured the hearts of MILLIONS with her Murderbot series, there was Khat, Sagai, and Elen, and a city risen out of death and decay... The city of Charisat, a tiered monolith of the Ancients’ design, sits on the edge of the vast desert known as the Waste. Khat, a member of a humanoid race created by the Ancients to survive in the Waste, and Sagai, his human partner, are relic dealers working in the bottom tiers of society, trying to stay one step ahead of the Trade Inspectors. When Khat is hired by the all-powerful Warders to find relics believed to be part of one of the Ancients' arcane engines, he, and his party, begin unravelling the mysteries of an age-old technology. This they expected. They soon find themselves as the last line of defense between the suffering masses of Charisat and a fanatical cult, bent on unleashing an evil upon the city with an undying thirst for bone. That, they did not expect. This updated and revised edition is the author’s preferred text.

The million-copy, New York Times bestselling Murderbot series is back in another full-length novel adventure! Am I making it worse? I think I'm making it worse. Everyone's favorite lethal SecUnit is back. Following the events in Network Effect, the Barish-Estranza corporation has sent rescue ships to a newly-colonized planet in peril, as well as additional SecUnits. But if there’s an ethical corporation out there, Murderbot has yet to find it, and if Barish-Estranza can’t have the planet, they’re sure as hell not leaving without something. If that something just happens to be an entire colony of humans, well, a free workforce is a decent runner-up prize. But there’s something wrong with Murderbot; it isn’t running within normal operational parameters. ART’s crew and the humans from Preservation are doing everything they can to protect the colonists, but with Barish-Estranza’s SecUnit-heavy persuasion teams, they’re going to have to hope Murderbot figures out what’s wrong with itself, and fast! Yeah, this plan is... not going to work.

"After being murdered, his consciousness dormant and unaware of the passing of time while confined in an elaborate water trap, Kai wakes to find a lesser mage attempting to harness Kai's magic to his own advantage.

And why does the Rising World Coalition appear to be growing in influence? Kai will need to pull his allies close and draw on all his pain magic if he is to answer even the least of these questions. He's not going to like the answers"-- Provided by publisher
