    <![CDATA[[A Vorkosigan Adventure] Cetaganda is another installment in the Hugo-award winning adventures of Miles Vorkosigan, in which Miles and Cousin Ivan go to Cetaganda to play the part of sprigs of the nobility doing their diplomatic duty by good old Barrayar. The idea is that they will gain diplomatic polish on this simple mission, but when the Cetagandan empress dies naturally and her lifelong attendant dies unnaturally--apparently a suicide, but there are rumors--Miles and Ivan find themselves in the thick of it. Miles tries to play detective in a strange, complicated, and deceptively alien culture. Meanwhile, handsome and lascivious Ivan manages to get himself involved with several women at the same time--all of whom are TROUBLE from the word go. Miles had always wanted to save the Empire--it was just that the Cetagandan wasn't exactly the empire he'd had in mind... Seiun Award Nominee, HOMer Award Nominee, Locus Poll Award Nominee]]>

    <body><![CDATA[There are books in the Miles Vorkosigan series that are more profound, darker, and more important to the development of the series and characters.

That is not to say it isn't an excellent book, because it is: it's simply not *quite* as breathlessly exciting as many of its fellows.

The characters are more interesting, more independent, layered, and even manage to be noble.<br/><br/>Highly recommended and a very fast read.]]></body>

I couldn't stop listening, even though the story overall lacked some of the personal depth of Bujold's other work.  But the society of Cetaganda shaped by Bujold is both complex and believable, and provides a fascina...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/61894512">more...</a>]]></body>
