Can you tell us anything about Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen?

Joseph Clark
Joseph Clark asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

In "Komarr", Ekaterin notes that Nikki's Vorzohn's Dystrophy would make him ineligible to be a jump pilot. Miles also notes this. But when Nikki is given the retrogenes, are we to assume they were successfully assimilated, and that Nikki is going to become a jump pilot eventually?

Jerri
Jerri asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Happy 2020, with hopes for more Penric and Desdemona adventures. Does the World of the Five Gods have any year end/winter solstice traditions like Winterfair on Barraryer?
