All Systems Red
内容简介
In a corporate-dominated spacefaring future, planetary missions must be approved and supplied by the Company. Exploratory teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids, for their own safety.
But in a society where contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, safety isn't a primary concern.
On a distant planet, a team of scientists are conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied 'droid—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 long enough to figure out who it is.
But when a neighboring mission goes dark, it's up to the scientists and their Murderbot to get to the truth.

读书文摘
在我广泛涉猎电影、电视剧、书籍、游戏和音乐等娱乐项目的时候，外头还没有发生太多杀戮——或许也有吧，但应该比不上足足35000小时的娱乐产品的消耗量。 所以，我完全没有作为冷酷无情的杀手机器人的觉悟。
杀手机器人是不能登上人类客舱的，除非有批准许可。虽说我的调控中枢已经被关闭了，理论上没有什么指令能阻止我登舱，但这是个不能说的秘密。在这群手握合同的人类面前，我得遵照规则行事，否则可能会被公司大卸八块。
