Probably the best book in the series in my opinion. Excellent from start to finish. (They all are. But this one scratches all my itches)

Pen's growth from the first novel was so nice. He's so wise now, but that's expected with Desdemona's context.
I didn’t expect this novella to affect me the way it did. Bujold explores grief and survival in invisible ink but with such care that parts of this story felt almost too real. It’s thoughtful, humane, and quietly devastating in the best way.
"Certain death still held attraction. Uncertain death, less so. He hurt enough already."
Bujold really told two stories in this novel. One of the stories only some people will see.
“It’s all very good now. And if it is not, there will be something better.”
