This prequel to the reknowned Miles Vorkosigan series shows how Miles’ parents fell in love, but if romance scares you, think of it as a complicated space opera of two conflicting planets clashing over wormholes and interstellar territory. Commander Cordelia Naismith of Beta Colony is on a scientific research mission when she is taken prisoner by Admiral Aral Vorkosigan (dubbed “The Butcher of Komarr”) of Barrayar. She expects to dislike him but soon finds he is an honorable man who treats her with respect and honesty. Caught in a web of interstellar conflict, the two former enemies come to trust one another exclusively. If you like this sweeping space opera, try Primary Inversion by Catherine Asaro, the Dune series by Frank Herbert or the Darkover series by Marion Zimmer Bradley.
