Any chance of a collector's edition or new version of the Vorkosigan Saga books that can be acquired as a set (boxed or otherwise)? I'd love to own (and be able to buy as gifts) the whole series in paper form... without having to hunt down each individual paperback (first world problems, I know - just wishful thinking). As a side note, I never thought the original covers quite did your writing justice.

Baen is doing quite a nice trade paperback reprint series -- they have the first five books out now. Starts here:
https://www.amazon.com/Shards-Honor-V...
No box sets planned, no.
Also, NESFA Press has the first eight titles (which were original paperbacks when they first came out) as nice hardcover reprints, although that only goes up a till my first printings started coming out as hardcovers.
Ta, Lois.

In nearly all your books, you use only a single Point of View character, and generally I really love your close third person style. Recently, though, I was rereading The Warrior's Apprentice, and it occurred to me that Elena has a huge personal story that we don't get to see much of. Did you ever consider using a dual POV for this book, or otherwise consider letting us see the world through Elena's eyes?

Lois McMaster Bujold:
More about names in the World of the Five Gods: I live in Catalonia, and it seems to me that various names in Chalion have a kind of pseudo-Catalan feel to them, without actually being Catalan. But Foix is a Catalan place name, pronounced Fosh, and also a southern-French name, pronounced Fwa. You're not J. R. R. Tolkien, so you probably haven't created complete languages to fill up your world. Is there any rationale?
