Cordelia, is on a survey mission when she's attacked and taken prisoner by a Barrayan commander.

Bujold is extremely widely acclaimed, and I decided to find out why. After this, I can't say I understand yet. It was fine, the writing good, apart from some language choices which haven't withstood the ravages of time. But I found it somewhat disjointed and got the feeling it isn't really a stand-alone book. The romance aspect felt shallow and very rushed. I'd have liked more information, but I supposed that's what sequels are for. Will read more.
