A review by djwudi
Barrayar by Lois McMaster Bujold

4.0

Really good continuation of the story from Shards of Honor, even beginning the day after the earlier book ended. Bujold manages to create fascinating, sometimes relatable, and often very flawed characters, and to craft a world that's an interesting mix of almost medieval feudalism and future technology. For a series I didn't know anything about and initially approached with a little skepticism, I'm definitely understanding why it got the awards and the good words it has from many of my friends.
