    <body><![CDATA[The Borders of Infinity is a unique addition to the Vorkosigan Saga, since except in the loosest term it is not really a novel.  It is three long stories joined by a nominal frame, touching on various portions of Miles's life.  The story begins with Miles flat on his back after surgery, reflecting o...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/55205224">more...</a>]]></body>

The  variation in tone across the tales is handled exceptionally well, as we  see Miles mourn and get a better look at his relationship with Illyan.  The stories include Miles's first outing as a detective, in which he's  faced with a case of infanticide in the mutant-phobic hill country; his  largest rescue mission ever; and the most distressed damsel for whom he  ever played the knight.]]>
