A NEW NOVEL IN THE AWARD WINNING SERIES FROM MULTIPLE NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR LOIS MCMASTER BUJOLD! Cordelia Naismith Vorkosigan returns to the planet that changed her destiny.
FUTURE TENSE
Three years after her famous husband’s death, Cordelia Vorkosigan, widowed Vicereine of Sergyar, stands ready to spin her life in a new direction. Oliver Jole, Admiral, Sergyar Fleet, finds himself caught up in her web of plans in ways he’d never imagined, bringing him to an unexpected crossroads in his career.
Meanwhile, Miles Vorkosigan, one of Emperor Gregor’s key investigators, this time dispatches himself on a mission of inquiry, into a mystery he never anticipated – his own mother.
Plans, wills, and expectations collide in this sparkling science-fiction social comedy, as the impact of galactic technology on the range of the possible changes all the old rules, and Miles learns that not only is the future not what he expects, neither is the past.

Product ReviewLoved it! We get to find out a lot more about Sergyar, and Jole and Cordelia are great POV characters.
That Miles gets driven crazy trying to figure things is just a bonus :)Posted on

Product ReviewLoved most of Vorkosigan series books so far. With Cordelia centered Barrayar and non-military Civil Campaign among my favorites. But this must be the worst Vorkosigan book I read. There is almost no action and the main intrigue is how are they going to tell Miles about their love affair and all the kids stuff. It was so boring, I was ready to stop reading at about 30% in. But it was Vorkosigan book. So kept going, expecting things will turn interesting soon. They never did. Ugh. What a waste of time

Product ReviewThis is a great story. A major fun, eye opening ride. Hint, the Vicereine is Beta and Chaos is the name of the game. After all Mlies and family drop by.
