Loading... Diplomatic Immunity (2002)by Lois McMaster Bujold
baen ebook   romsfuulynn | Apr 28, 2013 |  I loved it. I can't believe that I'm nearly at the end of the series. It's hard to believe the level of quality that Bujold has sustained throughout. This is a mystery-flavored Miles story, not untempered with love. Some old friends show up, there's some kidnapping, no little hilarity, and lots of excitement. Well-written- do I even need to say that? Highly recommended. (  ) satyridae | Apr 5, 2013 | A re-read. There’s a moment at the beginning that’s incredibly more poignant since the publication of Cryoburn (which I feel like I ought to re-read, but am dreading). I liked this one–Ekaterin is great, though it’s sometimes easy to overlook her, and the reappearance of Bel Thorne is wonderful. [Oct. 2011] ( ) maureene87 | Apr 4, 2013 | The one where Miles and Ekaterin inevitably have babies, but really it's more of a whodunit with icky bioweapons. Oh, and the four-armed space engineers show up again, but now they're not all teenagers. (  ) JenneB | Apr 2, 2013 | This wasn't my favorite of the Miles books, but it was serviceable. I haven't yet read the novels about the Quaddies, and that might give this more richness, but without that it wasn't a bad detective-type story. It was nice to see some old friends - and old enemies.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0743436121, Mass Market Paperback)This is a comedy of terrors...A rich Komarran merchant fleet has been impounded at Graf Station, in distant Quaddiespace, after a bloody incident on the station docks involving a security officer from the convoy's Barrayaran military escort. Lord Miles Vorkosigan of Barrayar and his wife, Lady Ekaterin, have other things on their minds, such as getting home in time to attend the long-awaited births of their first children. But when duty calls in the voice of Barrayar's Emperor Gregor, Miles, Gregor's youngest Imperial Auditor (a special high-level troubleshooter) has no choice but to answer. Waiting on Graf Station are diplomatic snarls, tangled loyalties, old friends, new enemies, racial tensions, lies and deceptions, mysterious disappearances, and a lethal secret with wider consequences than even Miles anticipates: a race with time for life against death in horrifying new forms. The downside of being a troubleshooter comes when trouble starts shooting back.(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 14 Apr 2011 06:25:47 -0400) A rich Komarran merchant fleet has been impounded at Graf Station, in distant Quaddiespace, after a bloody incident on the station docks involving a security officer from the convoy's Barrayaran military escort.
