I have been browsing the LMBujold list.

Have discovered that some readers think

• Gregor doesn't care all that about Miles (or that it's all tell-not-show in the books) because he doesn't haul him out of his woe-I-have-been-booted-from-the-military funks in WA and Memory


• Ges and Serg weren't, well, I suppose 'lovers' is kind of inappropriate, but anyway


• Donna/Dono isn't bi (and was all along)


• Elli is more interesting a character and more worthy of Miles than Ekaterin is

I don't think there's anyone going with e) All of the above, but you never know.


(My responses in order: take a closer look at the plot of those two books, no-brainer, Countess Vormuir springs to my mind, and ok, did you get the Beijing editions?)

Me too. Ekaterin gets to change much more than Elli, and I love the way she grows in Komarr. Though I am frustrated by the way she disappears in Diplomatic Immunity and we don't see her dealing with the Cetagandans and everyone else and with Miles being so ill.

I am also frustrated with DI. I got to the end and went 'But...but..where's the rest of it?'
I'm not sure which potential book I'd rather be able to read, the expanded DI or Warrior's Apprentice:The Home Front.
