Talli Ruksas asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

Lois McMaster Bujold I do not know if Leo and Silver had kids, but it is not ruled out. They would have needed biotech aid. Quaddie names were for a long time one unique name per quaddie, which, as the population expanded, got to be a stretch before they went to adding the numbers to allow duplication.

Yes, Delia was named after Cordelia; the latter is probably her actual legal name.

5 almost 6, 11 just turned from 10, a few months slipped in somewhere, variants in planetary year length... many retcons are feasible.

I don't know if Ivan and Tej have had kids "yet", nor where he is posted, nor, indeed, what his "new career" really turned out to be. Ivan presently exists in an electron cloud of potential, position unknown

Nikki did not choose to be adopted, and did choose to retain (and perhaps redeem) his family name. In his immediate Vorsoisson line, he is the senior male, being only son of the only son to have offspring, and possibly not too many brothers/uncles upstream.

Baen doesn't seem to be doing library placements at present, though HarperCollins is, and has my fantasies for them up in many libraries' e-systems. Blackstone Audio also has good library placement. I would like to get some of my direct-placement/self-published Vorkosigan e-book backlist up, at the very least a couple of titles to test the waters, but have not so far succeeded in doing so. I'm not sure which one or two would be best to experiment with.

Ta, L.
