Apple TV Plus’ adaptation of Martha Wells’ Murderbot Diaries has been one of this year’s surprisingly great sci-fi series, and the streamer has plans to keep the story going with a new batch of episodes.

The renewal for Murderbot comes a day ahead of the show’s first season finale, set for July 11. The CBS Studios show is based on the first book in Martha Wells’ Hugo and Nebula Award-winning Murderbot Diaries novel series. Chris and Paul Weitz adapted the book and serve as showrunners.

Murderbot has willed its way to a Season 2 on Apple TV+. The renewal news on Thursday comes ahead of the conclusion of the first season, which debuts on Friday.
