Beware getting hooked!,

This review is from: The Mountains of Mourning (Vorkosigan Saga) (Kindle Edition)
Beware! If you are not already addicted to reading each book of the Miles Vorkosigan series as soon as you can get your hands on it, reading this novella on Kindle might get you hooked. This novella won the Hogo & Nebula awards & became part of one of the early volumes of the series, Borders of Infinity. Most of the later volumes are novels & are not (yet) available on Kindle, but should be available inexpensively on paper. Only the price tells you that you are not getting a novel, but this story is well worth a re-read.
The series is space opera built around a future history in which each episode is shaped by hard science speculation. Miles, his family & allies encounter insurmountable obstacles, ... & surmount them with wry humor.
