This is my second time reading this novel - and let's just say: Bujold's books are eminently re-readable. No matter whether you've read them once already (like this one 12 or so years ago) or multiple times (like Cordelia's Honor, Memory, A Civil Campaign)... love her writing style, her Miles-voice,...

I liked this even more than the usual space battle-rich stories about Miles.

Cetaganda is the fifth story in the Vorkosigan Saga, a space opera series by Bujold. By this time a whole lot of story has passed, and I wouldn't try reading this novel as a standalone. This is a favorite series of mine, primarily for it's foremost character, Miles Vorkosigan. Miles is born with nea...

Another great book in the series. I love Miles and his adventures. He's a magnet for trouble and it's a miracle that he comes out of them in a better position ! This one wasn't as exciting(I wasn't on the edge of my seat chewing my nails when listening ,just chewing my nails:P ) as the other ones b...

Cetaganda doesn't have the manic energy of The Warrior's Apprentice, which retains top spot as my favourite Vorkosigan book so far. It lacks that pell-mell, out-of-control sense of urgency that I absolutely fell in love with. But it is still a solid entry into the series, and Miles remains an incred...

Not my very favorite in this series so far, but still an excellent mystery/adventure. Miles Vorkosigan and his cousin are sent as diplomatic envoys to a state funeral on Cetaganda. Basically, all they're expected to do is to show up and look suitably grave.However, the minute their spaceship docks, ...

On the one hand, the story is cohesive and interesting and Miles (and Ivan) are great in it. There’s conspiracies, which I like, and...

The Cetagandans are a race trying to bioengineer themselves into a higher...something, with occasional attempts to conquer all their neighbours. Barrayar has a long history of conflict with the Empire, but currently it's all diplomatic steps, and Miles has been sent to stand about at the former Cet...

Another great book in this excellent series! I wish there was some girl out there who could love Miles for all he has to give!!!!!!! I love Ivan's blank face when things are going bad and he wants to pretend he has nothing to do with whatever happened (which he usually didn't) but then everyone th...
