| dc.description.abstract | Rogue Protocol is the third novella in the Murderbot Series and follows the SecUnit (Security Unit) that calls itself Murderbot. SecUnits provide security to humans and augmented humans, and they are embedded with a governor module that monitors their behavior. Murderbot has overridden its governor module but continues to serve contracts to avoid notice. Following the events of Artificial Condition, Rogue Protocol finds Murderbot still impersonating an augmented human acting as a security consultant. The SecUnit travels to Milu to obtain information about GrayCris, the company that attacked a group of scientists in All Systems Red and which is suspected of illegal activities. Rogue Protocol follows Murderbot’s investigation of an abandoned terraforming facility that orbits planet Milu, which is also under examination by a research team from the corporation GoodNightLander Independent (GI). Murderbot infiltrates GI’s ship in order to gain access to the terraforming facility, but the team is attacked by CombatUnits, capturing one of its members in the process. Having rescued Hirune, Murderbot hacks and takes control of one of the attackers’ combat armors and is preparing the team to leave on the shuttle. In the end, Murderbot has enough evidence that the CombatUnits were sent by GrayCris to destroy the facility where they had been mining alien remnants illegally. The SecUnit decides to personally give the information to Dr. Mensah, its favorite human. | |
