Review of 'Komarr (Miles Vorkosigan Adventures)' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

En esta ocasión voy a seguir recomendando más libros de la Saga Vorkosigan; en este caso estamos ante una de las más detectivescas. Miles, después de lo sucedido en Recuerdos, tiene que afrontar que ahora es sólo un civil con una nueva ocupación, que en este caso le lleva hasta Komarr; uno de los pocos planetas pertenecientes al imperio de Barrayar que aún sufre las heridas de la ocupación y aunque en relativa calma aún tiene grupos que reivindican un Komarr libre.

En esta ocasión Miles tendrá que investigar si un presunto accidente espacial - el choque de una nave contra un espejo solar- se trata de un accidente, un sabotaje o un acto terrorista por parte de alguna organización pro independencia komarresa.

Nada más desembarcar en el planeta conocemos a nuevos secundarios, algunos muy geniales, y otros dolorosamente insufribles (Tien, saco de mierda, te miro a ti!).

En serio, …

Komarr review

Somehow I couldn’t really get into the central mystery of this story, nor the romance plot, much until the end. The switching back and forth between points of view worked much less well here than it did in Mirror Dance, maybe because I just found Ekaterin to be a bland character. A bit of a lull in the series, compared to Mirror Dance and even Memory. I’m looking forward to A Civil Campaign, though.

Reread I don't know how many times but finally adding to Goodreads. The first book of the Vorkisigan series in which Miles is fully post-military career and comes into his own as an Imperial Auditor. Introduces the lovely new character of Ekaterin Vorsoisson, as well as the wonderful Professor and Professora Vorthys. A bit murder mystery, a bit espionage and kidnapping, and a bit domestic drama, altogether a fun mix although probably not the best place to jump into the series.
