I thought I'd read quite a few. I was a little surprised at the ones I'd missed. I don't like Bujold. Read Falling Free which I hated. I gotta start readng some Leiber and Bester!

Actually, the first book I read of hers was Ethan which didn't impress me. Falling was the straw. I may try her again someday, which would probably please [personal profile] wild_irises. I'm in now hurry. Lot's of good stuff to read and reread!

Heh.

You read her two literary, thoughtful works, which are about social ramifications of various ways of setting up cultures -- very thoughtful, intelectual, and dry as dust.

Everything else she writes is guns-blazing space opera with the space pirates and the explosions and the gunfights and the wa-heyGLAVEN.

That's what I've been told. :) Can't remember much about Ethan. I read Falling as decidedly anti independent living.
