Lois McMaster Bujold:
Again I am rereading Captain Vorpatril's Alliance. Knowing G. Heyer is was something of an early influence for you, the thought drifted across my mind that Ivan is a many generations distant descendent of Freddy from Cottilion (he is my favorite character amongst Heyer's books). Both tend to be overshadowed by brighter stars, both have down to earth common sense. Was Freddie also a favorite of yours?
Lois McMaster Bujold
Oh, yes. I loved his relationship with his bemused father, too.
Heyer reuses the type, and it is common elsewhere, so it's not a sole source. See also Wodehouse.

I loved novels starring Cordelia, who is my favorite character in the series, and was wondering if any more are planned, particularly ones focusing just on her? I also particularly loved the Cetaganda novel, so any chance of something like that in the future, perhaps one more heavily Cetagandan in POV? Thanks!
