The Hugo and Nebula Award-winning book series 'The Murderbot Diaries' by Martha Wells has been greenlit for a 10-episode season on Apple TV+.

I’ve just finished reading the last of the books, and I’m pretty excited to see what they do with the series.

    So this is being developed by the people responsible for - variously - The Creator, American Pie, and Foundation?

    Not exactly inspiring huge confidence in their ability to create thoughtful science fiction that respects and understands the core themes of the source material.

      I’ve read the Murderbot books and enjoyed them, but I wouldn’t call them deep.

        The mental health journey of murderbot is pretty subtle. That would be a pretty easy thing to screw-up.
