A review by paladinboy
Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen by Lois McMaster Bujold

5.0

A story to savor, rather than gobble down like many of the earlier Vorkosigan books, his story focuses on Cordelia and others in later life on the planet that started it all, Sergyar. Full of great biological metaphors (as always) and discussions of family and politics the book is both intro and retrospective. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, it is also a book full of hope for the future. This a book for long time fans of the series, preferably after a complete re-read to be sure to get all of the references to all the wonder of Vorkosiganerse.
