Lois McMaster Bujold is, in my opinion, one of the best writers of science fiction around today. She has won many awards, including Nebula's and hugo, some of the higest awards in science fiction writing.
Her most famous series is her Vorkosigan series, which follows the life of Miles Vorkosigan, a dwarfish, manic, brilliant man. The first book begins with his parents meeting each other, in the middle of an intergalactic war, in which they were on opposite sides. The series of books follow Miles are he grows up, trying to make a life for himself in a world were strength and military valour are all important and any hint of being a 'mutant' is disgusting to people.

Miles is one of the best, funniest, most amazing character ever, he is just so real, you cant help but adore him. You feel you have lived his life with him and that you genuinly know this amazing, brilliant, infuriating little man.

This space opera series is incredible, I've read everyone a dozen times, they make you laugh out loud, cry, cheer and simultaniously want to read it all in one sitting yet never want it to end. I have been known to finish one of them and go back and start reading it all over again, straight away.

There is intrigue, comedy, sex, romance, politics, adventure and so much more.

She is currently writing a new series, which is more fantasy, beginning with The Hallowed Hunt. These look to be just as popular and interesting as the wonderful Vorkosigan series.
