There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall.

Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

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.”

Publisher's Summary
The Polity Collective stretches from Earth Central into the unfathomable reaches of the galactic void. But when the Polity finally encounters alien life in the form of massive, hostile, crablike carnivores known as the Prador, there can be only one outcome - total warfare.
Chaos reigns as, caught unawares, the Polity struggles to regain its foothold and transition itself into a military society. Starships clash, planets fall and space stations are overrun. But for Jebel Krong and Moria Salem, trapped at the centre of the action, this war is far more than a mere clash of cultures, far more than technology versus brute force. This war is personal.
Prador Moon is one of Neal Asher's most shocking excursions into the Polity's universe of over-the-top violence and explosive action - a vivid, visceral, brilliantly intense space opera that you won't forget soon.

Great.
Good, epic plot. Author accent a bit out of place and unfitting but still good

great story, Neal Asher is a master storyteller
loved this novel. the audio sometimes is a little funny and could be more suited to comedy, but most of it is totally riveting. if you like Asher, or are into space opera science fiction, this is almost essential.

Not as good as I hoping
The good:
The story improves as it goes. It builds to a reasonable resolution. There are space battles and future tech if that's what you want in a novel.
The concept of the Prador is fascinating - an alien species with no sense of morality and just pure aggression. I think this was the most interesting thing about the novel, especially as they began to comment on humanity. It would have been cool if they were explored more as a species, like what their home and history is like.
The bad:
While the voice acting is great at points, at others it's just irritating.
Ultimately, it just feels poorly written. The story is a bit undeveloped and there is so much world building that should have happened. I was hoping for space opera, but while this is obviously sci fi in a space setting, it doesn't really do the expansive, well-constructed universe thing super well. Several of the key characters are quite undeveloped and chunks of the dialogue are cheesy. I felt like by the end I only really cared about one of the characters, and even then he was a bit cliche in a lot of ways.
The violence and gore is also a bit unnecessary at times without contributing to the story. Feels a bit like a teenager wrote the fight sequences.
