Cetaganda

 
 
Cetaganda
by Lois McMaster Bujold
Baen
1995

Cetaganda is some middle chapter in Bujold's Vorkosogian Saga about the spy adventures of a Byronic hero type - a super smart, wise-ass jerk with a physical disability. I couldn't remember how this ended up on my to-read list until the third-gender servants showed up ... but these servants have such a small role that it's not worth reading the book to see them. The story combines a murder mystery and spy intrigue and isn't bad, although the other characters mind the hero being a wise-ass jerk much less than you'd expect them to.
