Cryoburn by Lois McMaster Bujold

Why yes, I am working my way through the Hugo nominees list.

Speaking of, IMO this book isn't Hugo material. It's OK, but just OK. I suppose Vorkosigan fans are insatiable and may vote it in anyway, but there's nothing new here, and really not even very much suspense or mystery to speak of, and no compelling new characters either, just mostly the same old walking through a story.

I haven't read more than about half the Vorkosigan books, the last one before this chronologically was Mirror Dance, so this is the first really post-military Miles story I've read. Maybe I just miss that aspect.
