Review of 'Brothers in arms' on 'Goodreads'

No rating

This is again a typical Myles story in that it's a bit annoying that our supposedly thoughtful tactical genius makes very weird and reckless decisions sometimes. But once making trouble has happened, the getting out of it part is interesting enough and the protagonist with his "people before principles" principle is so likable, that I've forgiven the lapses of judgement. Though I think this book had an action sequence that I zoned out for a bit. Still, solid book. Very cool to read.

Review of 'Brothers in arms' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Taking place a few months after the short story "Borders of Infinity", the Dendarii stop at Earth for some downtime and much needed repairs. Miles decamps to the Barrayan embassy to get paid... and things just spiral downward from there.

This is the beginning of the two-book arc I think of as "Mark's tale". Brothers in Arms is a great book and the strongest of her earlier books. Lots of great character interactions and some really fascinating hints into Barrayar's Komarran conquest, the political interactions amongst different worlds, and Miles' borderline split personality between Naismith and Vorkosian. Loved it.
