I have discovered audiobooks and they have changed my life! I no longer dread long drives, I look forward to them. I own all your books in both print and e-book so I am using the library for the audio versions. The problem is the name pronunications. Some are not at all like I thought so it sounds like a different person. How do YOU pronounce dy Ferrej? Both parts...
Lois McMaster Bujold
Ayup, sometimes the narrators call me to get my pronunciations, sometimes they don't.
I pronounce dy Ferrej as dee Fer-ezjh, French J not Spanish.
...I can usually tell when someone is from the west of southwest when they give my name the Spanish j, Boo-hold. Nope, French, Bu-zjhold.

Hi, Lois! It’s Mary from the Mysteries from the Yard era. Whenever I feel really down, there are three books that I turn to, reading several time a year (life’s a b—- and all…): Gaudy Night, Pride and Prejudice, and A Civil Campaign. It strikes me that I have never asked which books from Charlotte and Georgette you turn to? I especially would love to know - what is your favorite Heyer title?

Wot5G deals with the difference between a Great Soul and what is deemed a Great Person (power, wealth, military victories, etc.) Sometimes a god does favor a soldier. How do the other gods feel about & react to a god’s favorite going around harvesting before their time the souls they are trying to cultivate? Do they understand wars as other than an odd increase in souls? Can the gods even communicate with each other?
