From the back cover:
Forward Momentum!
From the award-winning science-fiction stories of Lois McMaster Bujold comes the Vorkosigan Saga, set in a future universe of honor and betrayal, war and intrigue, great victories and great defeats. Miles Vorkosigan is brilliant, charismatic, the heir to a noble house on a warrior planet … and hopelessly crippled.
No. Not hopelessly. A Vorkosigan never gives up. And when the fragile, dwarfed, odd-looking Miles charges headlong against the universe … the Universe gives way. Miles may break, too, but he’s used to breaking. And he’ll pay that price, for his Emperor’s honor and his own.
Now you can enter the world of Miles Vorkosigan. Play his soldiers, his agents, his comrades. Play Miles himself, if you’re up to the challenge … and if you think you can dare as much, and talk as fast, as the “little Admiral.”
This book includes a complete roleplaying system, GURPS Lite, plus separate sections on spaceship design and spaceship combat. The setting presented in the Vorkosigan Saga can be used with any game system.
