About this listen

Dying is easy. Coming back to life is hard. At least that's what Miles Vorkosigan thinks, and he should know - having done both once already.

Thanks to his quick-thinking staff and incredible artistry from a medical specialist, Miles' first death wasn't his last. But it does take some recovery, a fact he has been reluctant to admit. When he makes the mistake of returning too soon to military duty, he finds himself summoned home to face the Barrayaran security chief, Simon Illyan.

But Miles' worst nightmares about Simon Illyan are nothing compared to Illyan's own nightmares. Under suspicion himself, Miles must seek out the answers to Ilyan's nightmares or see the inevitable destruction of Imperial Security and, with it, the Empire.

Critic Reviews

"Science fiction at its very best!" (Rave Reviews)
"As ever with Bujold, Memory is a delight!" (Locus)
"Bujold fans of long standing will justly hail [this] as a masterpiece that contains some of her finest prose and characterization. Bujold continues to prove what marvelous genius can create out of basic space operatics." (Booklist)

A great story about self discovery and change

High points -
1. Narration - Grover Gardner truly brings Miles to life. His reading of the saga has been phenomenal.
2. Character Development - Miles seems to grow into his own in this story.
3. Action - While the scope of the action was limited to Barrayar this time, it was nonetheless very entertaining.
4. The goodbyes were bittersweet but necessary. The events of the book indicate a change in direction for Miles and I am sure all of us will miss his Naismithery.

Low/Neutral points -
1. The middle part of the story did feel a bit slow and meandering. However, that is just a personal opinion.

All in all, a very good addition and definite turning point the story.
