Liked It“A fantastic space opera. There is political intrigue, family dramatics, adventure, some strong women, and some fantastic men. The sci fi is great and the people are not over-shadowed by the story. A great ending to Cordelia's story and a wonderful beginning to Mile's saga.” see full review » see other reviews » |

Yes | No“Rastegnula sam čitanje na nekoliko tjedana pa imam dojam kao da sam čitala dvije odvojene knjige - onaj prvi dio koji sam uspjela pročitati nije me se toliko dojmio, dok ovaj drugi, do kraja, progutala sam u dva dana, i više nego oduševljena. Cordelia... [3
No, napokon stižem do onoga što me stvarno zanima - Milesa. Već danas počinjem čitati Priručnik za ratnika kojeg sam se domogla prije o-ho-ho godina (sram me misliti koliko je dugo vremena prošlo).
Način pisanja L. M. Bujold mi odgovara, ta unutarnja promišljanja glavnih likova, dvojbe... Lagani cinizam... ”
“Cordelia rocks my sock, most definitely. Such a strong and independent woman; without losing her female characteristics, such an warrior. ”

Great, Wonderful, Amazing book. Cordelia is my favorite character not just in science fiction but in all fiction. I love seeing how she thinks and what she does. That is why I’ve read these books so many times. She is strong and smart and empathetic and feminine and resourceful. I can relate to her and want to be her.”

It doesn't explain why Cordelia doesn't have more children, like she wants to at several points in this book, but does a nice job of showing why Miles turned out so well.”
