Cordelia Naismith, Betan Survey Captain, was expecting the unexpected: hexapods, floating creatures, odd parasites... She was not, however, expecting to find hostile humans on an uninhabited planet. And she wasn't really expecting to fall in love with a 40-plus barbarian known to cosmopolitan galactics as the Butcher of Komarr. Will Mother ever understand? And can such an odd beast as love survive an interplanetary war?
Review
Am now on the second cassette of "Shards of Honor". You've all done any excellent job on these tapes! I'll definitely be recommending them to anyone whose interested. My compliments to all of you involved. -- catsinc, 9/2/98
Each reader is excellent. The romantic tension that occurs in the first three tapes will keep ears tuned in for the rest. Highly recommended. -- KLIATT, July 1997
I am anxiously awaiting the release of Lois McMaster Bujold's "The Vor Game". I have listened to "Barrayar" and "Warriors Apprentice" -- loved them both; and have just ordered "Falling Free" and "Shards of Honor". Thank you for supplying such a superior product! -- glaboy, 03/05/98
I finally broke down and bought the Shards of Honor. I have been totally delighted with the tapes. -- TWIN2BJ, 4/2/97
I just finished listening to the Shards of Honor audio book. I was working on a cross-stitch project at the same time - I never got so much back-stitching done in one sitting :D! Anyway, I thought the two performers (Carol Cowan and Michael Hanson) did a wonderful job. -- yapivy, 4/18/97
I previously ordered the audiobook Shard's of Honor from Amazon.com and was very impressed with the production. After listening to Shard's of Honor I am very interested in hearing the next installments. -- swroberts, 8/30/98
The romance in Shards of Honor is not the blistering heat of lust, but rather a quiet wellspring of enduring passion that has its beginnings in earned mutual respect and genuine friendship. This is the perfect romance for audio--no embarrassing sexually explicit scenes and lots of rousing adventure involving survival, exploration and war, combined with intriguing politics. -- AudioFile, February 1998
This classy little publishing company is once again offering a fine production with the considerable help of the talented performing team of Carol Cowan and Michael Hanson. This time the two are functioning as star-crossed lovers Cordelia Naismith of Beta Colony and Aral Vorkosigan of the planet Barrayar. The characters are well-developed and believable, making the account highly listenable. -- St. Louis Post-Dispatch, April 6, 1997
This richly textured adventure/romance is set in a distant future when humans make war and peace on an interstellar scale. Two star-crossing lovers from contending civilizations are thrown together in a survival situation, and...a series is born. An outstanding book becomes a distinguished audiobook throughout the voices of Cowan and Hanson. Go thou and buy this, for great is your reward. -- AudioFile, June 1997
