I have a confession to make. I am not capable of objectivity when it comes to these books, so please don't expect it. You might get me to admit that this wasn't the greatest of the Vorkosigan books, but I still enjoyed it so much that I can't imagine giving it anything other than 5 stars. I love the stories that Lois McMaster Bujold writes and the characters that she creates. Miles, in particular, is a character I could read about doing something completely boring and still be perfectly happy. Yes, I love his character that much.

As for this book in particular, I could probably sum it up for me in just three words: Miles, you dork!
