Cryoburn (Vorkosigan Saga)

Cryoburn - Lois McMaster Bujold This one was top-notch all the way to the end. Whereupon it became transcendent and eviscerating and made me temporarily lose the ability to breathe.Miles is so real, by which I mean to say, Bujold is an extraordinarily good writer. I loved Jin's POV in this book and was briefly surprised that Bujold was so convincing writing an 11 year old boy. Then I stopped and remembered it was Bujold, after all. She could write convincingly from a snail's POV, no doubt. The story is splendid- full of philosophical reverberations and big questions and entirely believable multi-faceted people. I am sorry to have reached the end of the series. At least till November- which as I write is only 3 months away.
