false 61909 13 Miles Vorkosigan faces more than his share of troubles as the protagonist in <b>Mirror Dance</b>. Not only is he deformed and undersized but he has a cloned brother who gets into a jam in the free enterprise plague spot known as Jackson's Whole. Miles tries to help his brother but ends up injured, placed on cryogenic suspension and then lost in intergalactic limbo. And that's just in the first 100 pages. The following 300 pages add a wealth more to this fantastic tale that's both humorous and finely written. <b>Mirror Dance</b> won the 1995 Hugo Award for Science Fiction. 287351 book 1994 Mirror Dance total:1124|5:459|4:472|3:170|2:23|1:0| 1124 4739 1342 39 5 0 false true Sun Mar 08 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Mar 05 21:32:28 -0800 2009 Mon Mar 16 09:44:14 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Aug 17 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 24 09:09:26 -0700 2009 Fri Aug 28 07:46:33 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed May 06 18:26:01 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 22 04:31:16 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false true Sat Apr 12 08:53:14 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 11 07:38:06 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sun Nov 18 08:22:04 -0800 2007 Tue Nov 20 08:49:22 -0800 2007
