Brash and exciting
adventure set in a fascinating universe. Similar themes but mega-evolution from
Bujold's first Hugo winner, Falling Free,
that began this (so far) eleven-book series. (Latest Memory)
Mirror Dance still slows with discussions of Vorkosigian family history but biting danger and vivid characterizations more than balance the difference.
The plot centers around a nefarious use of human cloning. Outlaw scientists raise look-alike clones for rich patrons who then have brain transplants when their old bodies start to wear out. This assures their quasi immortality but sacrifices the cloned brains. Mark, himself a Vorkosigian clone, doesn't think this is a good idea and initiates an attempt to save the brain-transplant destined clones.
Daring military ventures, fascinating personalities, complex political intriguea highly entertaining book!
