5.0 out of 5 stars
Top notch stories from among the best SF writers,
By K. Maxwell "katmax1" (Sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Intergalactic Mercenaries (Paperback)
This book contains a small number of stories. In fact some of them could be more correctly called novellas than short stories. The link between them all is that they are all extemely well written, and their main characters have been involved in war in some way. Most of these are not new, but put together like this they make an outstanding collection. Included is one Miles Vorkosigan story (not new) if you are looking up this book because of that author's series.This book contains the following stories: "Call him Lord" by Gordon R. Dickson Read, and enjoy:)
