This book is the duology prequel to the Miles Vorkosigan sage and is not to be missed. It sets up so much and is a great combination of humor and uncomfortable reading. One of my desert island collection, so to speak. (And this is my second or maybe even third copy of it as I have lent out at least one that never came home.)

I absolutely LOVE this book. The copy I received from PBS was my third copy of the book as I lent one out that never returned, and reread another until it fell apart(after my teenage kids also read and reread it). This is definitely on my "desert island list." The characters are fully fleshed out, deal well with tragedy, and are very funny in a dry fashion. Interestingly, I also feel I got a good insight into Providence, despite the made-up nature of the 5-gods theology!
