1. Lois McMaster Bujold: Miles Errant
2. Lois McMaster Bujold: Memory
3. Wolfgang Flür: Kraftwerk — I Was A Robot

On his first assignment as the Eighth Imperial Auditor, Miles is sent to Komarr to find out whether the ore transport ship ramming the solar mirror was an accident or deliberate sabotage — a task which isn't necessarily made easier by the fact that his father, 30-odd years ago, headed the Barrayaran invasion force that annexed Komarr and earned the nickname "The Butcher of Komarr" in the process. Miles does find answers, but he also finds something he never expected... love.
A thriller, a near-romance, a chilling depiction of an emotionally abusive marriage, and, for the first time, a good look at Miles through the eyes of a stranger.
