If what grabbed you in Killing Gravity was riding shotgun with Mariam Xi as she sprints from black-ops pursuers and turns confrontations into rapid-fire set pieces, you’ll click with All Systems Red. Murderbot’s first-person voice drags you through tight, high-stakes jobs—protecting a survey team while corporate interests close in—delivering the same quick, no-filler momentum and tense showdowns you loved when a certain voidwitch decided to stop running and hit back.

Enjoyed how Mariam Xi’s lethal choices and not-so-clean conscience drive the chaos in Killing Gravity? Cas Russell is cut from that same jagged cloth. In Zero Sum Game, a hyper-competent mercenary uses near-impossible math-driven reflexes to tear through cartels and shadow organizations, making snap moral compromises that echo the voidwitch’s own scorched-earth solutions when her makers come calling.

If you were here for a powerful woman carving her own path after being engineered and exploited—like Mariam Xi breaking free of her creators—then Breq’s relentless pursuit of Anaander Mianaai will hit home. Ancillary Justice pairs a steely, controlled voice with razor-edged set pieces and a personal mission that spirals into empire-shaking consequences, echoing the defiance that made Killing Gravity so compelling.

Loved the close-quarters feel of Killing Gravity—small ship, tighter circle of allies, and conflicts that get personal fast? The Stars Are Legion traps you with Zan and Jayd inside living world-ships, forcing brutal, intimate choices amid a handful of uneasy alliances. That same narrow focus turns every corridor skirmish and betrayal into a gut punch, much like when the voidwitch’s found family is dragged into her fight.

If the raw edges of Killing Gravity—the aftermath of experimentation, the ugly reckonings with abusers, the messy violence—stuck with you, Warchild goes just as hard. Jos is kidnapped by pirates, conditioned, and thrust into conflicting loyalties, and every fight or negotiation carries the same bruising, lived-in grit that ran through Mariam Xi’s confrontations with the people who made her a weapon.
