This Hugo-nominated novella adds a delightful extra chapter to Bujold's acclaimed Vorkosigan series. Falling in between the novels A Civil Campaign and Diplomatic Immunity, it describes the wedding of Miles and Ekaterin and the events leading up to it.

In the festive season of Winterfair on the planet Barrayar, Lord Miles Vorkosigan is making elaborate preparations for his wedding. The long-awaited event stirs up romance and intrigue among his eccentric family and friends, particularly for bioengineered space mercenary Sergeant Taura and shy, diffident Armsman Roic. But Miles also has an enemy who is plotting to turn the romantic ceremony into a festival of death.

Winterfair Gifts offers another of Bujold's witty, character-centered science-fiction plots with a twist of romance.

Featured Article: 12 of the Best Sci-Fi Series in Audio


From the furthest reaches of space to the microbiology of pandemics and gene manipulation, to the future implications of technology for societies similar to our own, science fiction is a fascinating genre that offers listeners a wide variety of ways to access its themes. In looking for the best sci-fi audiobook series, it can be difficult to know where to start due to the genre's sheer number of iterations and variations. But what these series have in common is an acute devotion to telling a good story, as well as fully building out the worlds therein. The writing is enhanced by the creative and impassioned narration.

What did you love best about Winterfair Gifts?

meeting Roic (fully dressed)

Have you listened to any of Grover Gardner’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes. He's always good, and has corrected some mispronunciations from the earlier books in the series

It’s a hard to justify a credit to spend but if you really like Miles and these books it’s hard to pass it up. At first I was going to just go to the next book but I felt his wedding would be to big to miss and I’m very glad I didn’t.

Worth the credit

A lovely story for Vorkosigan fans, from a new point of view character.
Narration has a problem, Taura's dialog is very quiet and so hard to hear

A lovely story

Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
Guests have arrived for Lord Miles’ wedding to Ekaterin and Armsman Roic is tapped to escort Sergeant Taura for dress fittings and running. They’re also drawn into a mystery and a bit of romance. It’s 10 years since Miles rescued Taura and she’s on borrowed time, so it’s really sweet that Taura gets to enjoy the company of some handsome men and feel a bit of that fairy princess magic.
Gardner is just a great narrator.

Taura has a special time at Miles’ wedding

Had fun listening, though I felt that some character developments were a bit forced. It's a good follow up to A Civil Campaign. The story focuses a lot of time on a size relationship when it should have had more of the wedding itself. Still if you're a fan, you'll be grinning the entire time.

Silly, typical, but fun
