Editorial Review Product Description Kibou-daini is a planet obsessed with cheating death. Barrayaran Imperial Auditor Miles Vorkosigan can hardly disapprove—he’s been cheating death his whole life, on the theory that turnabout is fair play. But when a Kibou-daini cryocorp—an immortal company whose job it is to shepherd its all-too-mortal frozen patrons into an unknown future—attempts to expand its franchise into the Barrayaran Empire, Emperor Gregor dispatches his top troubleshooter Miles to check it out. On Kibou-daini, Miles discovers generational conflict over money and resources is heating up, even as refugees displaced in time skew the meaning of generation past repair. Here he finds a young boy with a passion for pets and a dangerous secret, a Snow White trapped in an icy coffin who burns to re-write her own tale, and a mysterious crone who is the very embodiment of the warning Don’t mess with the secretary. Bribery, corruption, conspiracy, kidnapping—something is rotten on Kibou-daini, and it isn’t due to power outages in the Cryocombs. And Miles is in the middle—of trouble! “Fresh, intriguing, and, as always with Lois McMaster Bujold, superb.” —Robert Jordan “It is such a delight to read something by such a good writer, who now seems to be writing at the height of her powers. . . . I really have seldom enjoyed a book so much . . . I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.” —Diana Wynne Jones “Living breathing characters who inhabit unusual yet believable worlds.” —Jean Auel “Bujold successfully mixes quirky humor with just enough action, a dab of feminist social commentary and her usual superb character development . . . enormously satisfying.” —Publishers Weekly “One of sf’s outstanding talents . . . an outstanding series.” —Booklist “Excellently done . . . Bujold has always excelled at creating forceful characters and she does it here again.” — “. . . an intelligent, well-crafted and thoroughly satisfying blend of adventure, sociopolitical commentary, scientific experiments, and occasional perils . . . with that extra spicing of romance. . . .” —Locus Customer Reviews (30)
Haven't read it, but already worth it!!!
From most other writers, this would have been a solid effort
Forgettable... and that's rare for Bujold
Great,but shy of mind-blowing
Enjoyable, but Not Great |

another must-read!
A refreshing love story with a lot of soul!! It's really different from anything I've read in science fiction. usually the stuff is very technical, very scientific, and has no room for love or romance in it. in fact, most characters in a sf book are not developed -- they are one dimensional and subservient to technology and events. your book doesn't have so much hard science, but it has beautiful characters. i just loved Brandy.
So bad it's funny
the perfect cuddle up for a afternoon of reading book
Great! |

Editorial Review Product Description Carved into a moving island of ice twice the size of the United States, Ice Station Grendel has been abandoned for more than seventy years. The twisted brainchild of the finest minds of the former Soviet Union, it was designed to be inaccessible and virtually invisible. But an American undersea research vessel has inadvertently pulled too close—and something has been sighted moving inside the allegedly deserted facility, something whose survival defies every natural law. And now, as scientists, soldiers, intelligence operatives, and unsuspecting civilians are drawn into Grendel's lethal vortex, the most extreme measures possible will be undertaken to protect its dark mysteries—because the terrible truths locked behind submerged walls of ice and steel could end human life on Earth. James Rollins invokes the polar environment so vividly you can hear the wind shriek and feel the ice forming on your nose, and the scientific/medical puzzles at the story's heart may remind you of Michael Crichton's best. The characters, while mostly familiar hero or villain types, are crisply drawn and in some cases quite sympathetic, but it's the nonstop action that carries you along. During several climactic chase scenes, you may find yourself laughing in pure delight--or gasping for breath--as Rollins keeps finding ways to ratchet up the tension one more notch. Ice Hunt is an escapist's delight. --Nicholas H. Allison Customer Reviews (119)
This is drivel.

Classic Thomas Berger, and very funny
Reinhart: Part 3
A brilliant, sardonic view of the "generation gap." When a former high school classmate gives the overweight, crew cutReinhart a chance to get in on the ground floor of the cryogenics fad, i.e.freezing corpses for future restoration, the WWII veteran crashes head-oninto the 60's generation. Berger's great talent for depicting life'sabsurdities through the eyes of a talented misfit, which he did so well in"Little Big Man," is used perfectly in "Vital Parts" todepict the plight of the middle-aged, suburban, white American male, whosepost-WWII utopia was irrevocably altered by women's lib, free love, civilrights, and the youth movement. Between his oustal by his wife forcutting his son's long hair off while sleeping and his affair with a22-year-old nymphomaniac, who keeps her car doors unlocked because she"doesn't like to block any of her entrances," Reinhart has onehilarious adventure after another. The plot hums and it is hard to read"Vital Parts" in public without laughing hysterically. If youliked "Confederacy of Dunces" or "Catch-22" with theirwiseguy, lost-in-a-sea-of-madness protaganists then you will love"Vital Parts." It is a shame that so many of Berger's books areno longer in print. He's one of the great observers of late 20th centuryAmerican life. ... Read more |
