Miles Vorkosigan makes his debut in this frenetic coming-of-age tale. At age seventeen, Miles is allowed to take the entrance exams to the elite military academy; he passes the written but manages, through miscalculation in a moment of anger, to break both his legs on the obstacle course, washing out before he begins. His aged grandfather dies in his sleep shortly after, and Miles blames himself. He is sent to visit his grandmother Naismith on distant Beta Colony, accompanied by his bodyguard, Sergeant Bothari, and Bothari's daughter, Elena. Miles passes himself off as a mercenary leader as he picks up a ragtag crew, and soon his father Aral is under political attack back home as garbled rumors of Miles' mercenary operations trickle back. Miles must abandon his new fleet and dash back to Barrayar to stop the plot.

Quizá tiene un ritmo mas irregular (comparado con la genialidad que es el de Barrayar), pero el estilo de escritura de Bujold junto con la construcción que hace de los personajes, convierten a este libro (y esta saga) en puro entretenimiento. ( )

Se nota que es de los primeros que se publicarón, comparado con Barrayar, no es tan fino ni engancha tanto. Pero aún así, Miles es un gran protagonista que puede dar mucho juego, y el modo en que Bujold lleva a concluir todas las tramas que hay es placentero, sin cabos sueltos y de un modo que no se siente acelerado.

Esta saga me va a dar muchas alegrias. ( )

I read this non-stop while traveling Saturday. SO. MUCH. FUN. Miles Vorkosigan is at his outrageously intelligent, hyperactive, utterly fabulous prime. Wish it had never ended, and now I have to wait before I can read it again...!

So I totally read this again.... It's funny to me that some people don't reread; I reread a lot. Sometimes I get in the mood for something particular and I know a book that can scratch that itch. Plus, I almost always find some new detail I never noticed before.

Oh look, I'm reading "Warrior's Apprentice" again. Miles is obviously the apprentice, but who is the warrior here? Bothari? Tung? The entire Dendarii fleet? Hm. ( )

Enjoyed it, but the protagonist's ascension from failed space cadet to successful space admiral is so far-fetched that it exceeded my suspension of disbelief. The characters and situations are charming though, and I like the feudal Barrayaran setting. ( )
  yaj70 | Jan 22, 2024 |
I'd like to give this 3.5, because the storyline got a bit to chaotic for me. I decided to round up instead of down, because the main character has physical birth defects, and how often do you see that in sf? Aside from the chaos, this was a very pleasant read, the characters are great, and once more we see competent female characters that may not be accepted in Barrayar society, but are accepted elsewhere.

"That's because I've got forward momentum. There's no virtue in it. It's just a balancing act. I don't dare stop."
"I guess it just doesn't look very heroic to sneak up behind somebody and shoot them in the back. I can't help thinking it would be more efficient, though."
But reason seemed to run backwards, conclusions swallowed in premises, and premises in silence, until in the end only silence and the unanswerable object remained.
More battles have been won or last by the quartermasters than by any general staff.
"A verbal agreement is the most binding of contracts! Your soul is in your breath, and therefore in your voice. Once pledged it must be redeemed."
