I wonder why I enter 2010 by digging up old stuff.

After reminiscing w-inds. now I reread this old series with still three more books to go.
In the midst of fantasy fictions invasions (it rhymes!! but doesn't really work ^^;) which was by started by Harry Potter, a friend introduced me to Cordelia Smith, the commander of an expedition, consists of scientists who jumps from planet to planet gathering scientific knowledge. So a bit reluctantly (because it's sci fi and I had Wheel of Time on my reading list),  I tried it (Shards of Honour) out. I was blown away. So I get Barrayar next. I was in love with Aral ^__^;

I was again a bit doubtful reading the next book, because the main character shifted to Miles Vorkosigan. But I braced through the doubt and I was in love again  (with Miles this time).

Facing so many troubles since childhood he grows up to be a very complex character.  He's brilliant, devious, hyperactive, over achieving bastard. It was a joy ride to follow how he mature to a confident man despite everything that befall him.

People who hasn't read the books must be confuse reading this, I'm not good at reccing, huh? In fact I butcher it T_T
Just go read the book. I assure you it's reaally good.

book, science fiction
