Did a reread of this novel from one of my favourite sci-fi series, the Vorkosigan Saga. My husband and I listened to the audiobook, superbly narrated by Grover Gardner, on a long road trip.

Of course I'd choose Aral. His full title and name took up an entire line in the book! (And this was before he was made Viceroy of Sergyar, and his full title was "Admiral Viceroy Count Aral Vorkosigan, Former Regent and Prime Minister of Barrayar.)
