Miles manages to graduate from the Academy. His reward? A first post on Kyril Island, predicting and combating the local weather and his commanding officer's homicidal moods. His reputation and stunted form further battered by both, Illyan finds a way to combine (sort of) Miles's two lives as Lord Vorkosigan and Admiral Naismith--great for Miles, but a little hard on his commanding officers.

Thwarted in his ambition to command a ship, Miles becomes embroiled in one undercover venture after another and finally is drawn into a search to find the emperor. Loyalty to the emperor might appear to be his motivation, but in truth Miles is driven by a desire to restore the emperor to the throne in order to avoid having to assume the job himself. Grover Gardner presents a precocious and quietly undaunted Miles. As Miles raises his eyebrows at what he learns, Gardner expresses the same in his narrative style. His tone is serious, with an undertone of wit, a love of intrigue, and a strong dose of confidence. J.E.M. 2006 Audie Award Finalist © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine--
