Tale of Love and Trust

For fans of tough decisions and deciding loyalty between family and a partner. I wish there was a bit more divulged around other horse clans, but the focus on main characters gives some good backstory for The Redemption Engine.

After a century of imprisonment, demons have broken free of the wardstones surrounding the Worldwound.

In order to succeed, however, the heroes will need to join forces with pious crusaders, barbaric local warriors, and even one of the legendary god callers.

Incomplete, needs more context

this is a tale from the middle of a larger story and there is no clue to what that story is.

Members Reviews:

A great character, be a far too short story.

I loved the story, the main character and the settings of the story, my only complaint is the story is super short. Hopefully Mr. Sutter will write more of these soon!

The audio book was far to short to have paid for

This audio book should have been combined with other short stories. I feel like I wasted my money.

a quick review

I laughed. I cried. I love this character and the writer. I can't wait for more.

great

love James Sutter

love Ray Porter

short story on an amazing character Salim.

must listen if you are a pathfinder fan

Excellent Short Story!

Good story and excellent performance by Ray Porter. Good use of the limited time to complete the tale.

Title: Proto Zoa

Subtitle: Five Early Short Stories

Author: Lois McMaster Bujold

Narrator: Grover Gardner

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 hrs and 37 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-01-16

Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 68 votes

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy

Publisher's Summary:

A delightful collection of Lois McMaster Bujold's early stories and a comprehensive introduction by this New York Times best-selling author.

Protozoa is a word from biology via the Greek, meaning "first animals". These short stories were indeed among the first life spontaneously generated in Lois McMaster Bujold's nascent writing career. Along with an introduction by the author, this collection features the short stories "Barter", "Garage Sale", "The Hole Truth", "Dreamweaver's Dilemma", and "Aftermaths".

Members Reviews:

Classic Bujold if a bit underdeveloped.

First, Ms. Bujold's narrator is, as always, perfect. I don't believe she has ever used anyone other than Grover Gardner and I applaud her good sense in this. The narration is excellent in each and every Vorkosigan saga. That said, I could have lived without this entry in that saga. It is well written but totally disjointed and confusing as to how it relates to any of her other books except, of course, the last entry which is already published in Shards of Honor (I think, or is it in Barrayar?).

My vote says good writing, great narration, but poor storyline in this compendium. I will listen again after digesting the other two stories that just came out and perhaps change my mind but first impression is that this should have been held back and released during the long drought between books and not at the same time as two other books from Ms. Bujold's are released.

Lois McMaster Bujold is the best!

I love Lois McMaster Bujold characters, so well developed flawed funny and Excellent. My favorite reader too. can't get enough!

Three Weak, One Repeat, One Very Good Short Story

These are very early, mostly note previously published, short stories. Most are better than average short stories, but that is not saying a lot as the vast majority of short stories are very weak. "Barter", "Garage Sale", "The Hole Truth" are short stories with rather weak, slightly humorous Twilight Zone endings. These were all previously unpublished, for good reasons. "Dreamweaver's Dilemma" is a very good short story, and was Bujolds first published work. It is set in the Vorkosigan universe with interesting characters and a pleasant little mystery. "Aftermaths" was previously published in Cryoburn and is an excellent short story, but all Vorkosigan readers will have read this before. Nevertheless, it was pleasant to hear this again.

Only Bujold completests need to read the first three stories. Dreamweaver makes the rest of the book quite worth the time and Aftermath is nice to rehear.

Grover Gardners narration is, as usual, wonderful. He makes the lessor stories quite tolerable, and brings life and humor to the best of the stories.
