When Enemies Become More than Friends—
THEY WIN

In her first trial by fire, Cordelia Naismith captained a throwaway ship of the Betan Expeditionary Force on a mission to destroy an enemy armada. Discovering deception within deception, treachery within treachery, she was forced into a separate peace with her chief opponent, Lord Aral Vorkosigan —he who was called "The Butcher of Komarr"—and would consequently become an outcast on her own planet and the Lady Vorkosigan on his.

Sick of combat and betrayal, she was ready to settle down to a quiet life, interrupted only by the occasion ceremonial appearances required of the Lady Vorkosigan. But when the Emperor died, Aral became guardian of the infant heir to the imperial throne of Barrayar —and the target of high-tech assassins in a dynastic civil war that was reminiscent of Earth's Middle Ages, but fought with up-to-the minute biowar technology. Neither Aral nor Cordelia guessed the part that their cell-damaged unborn would play in Barrayar's bloody legacy.

Publisher's Note: Cordelia's Honor is comprised of two parts: Shards of Honor and Barrayar. Together they form a continuous story following the life of Cordelia Vorkosigan nee Naismith from the day she met her then-enemy Lord Aral Vorkosigan through the boyhood of her son Miles. Barrayar won the Hugo Award for best science fiction novel of the year.

    I have purchased this as a paperback in the past, now want to load it on my iPad. Why have you eliminated it from the purchase options?? I get wanting to make more money by forcing us to purchase the two included books separately, but the author added some additional information in the omnibook. Please re-install the omnibook purchase option!!!!

    What's going on? This book has been unavailable for at least 6 months. I want to read the entire series, buying loads of books, but I'm going to start at the beginning. Break this loose, and I'll spend more money at Baen.

    Why would an ebook ever be not available? Why won't you let me give you my money?

    I read a lot and there are certain books I read again about once a year. Weber's first seven Honor books, Lee and Millers Liad books, and the Vorkosigan books. She really is the best on character building and just a sense of honorable people doing their duty. How did she ever think up Miles? Moving, funny, so very interesting. Reading seldom makes me laugh but these do. Among the best. I took a lot away from reading this book in particular, treat people how you expect them to act-as she did Bothari. Glad Baen offers e-books.
