Lona asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

The Vorkosigan books are some of my all-time favorite reads. Heroes, espionage, betrayals.... I actually cried several times. Thank you so very much. Highly recommended. Which book was your personal fave?

Lois McMaster Bujold
Having just re-copy-edited all 17 of them for the new e-covers last summer, I should have an answer for this, but it's still a surprisingly difficult frequently asked question. But I suppose Memory and A Civil Campaign are the front runners.

Carol asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Is there a listing somewhere that gives the Vokosigan Saga in the order it was published? I started reading the series on the recommendation of a co-worker, and the library provided Mirror Dance and Memory. Going forward from there I read them in publication order, but that's not very different from the internal chronology. I collected the earlier books over time, and read them as flashbacks.

Derek Knox asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Have you read Lindsay Buroker's trilogy Forgotten Ages? There's quite a few similarities between her characters and Cordilia and Aryal. Though her series is fantasy/steampunk. I'd list them, but seems there's a character limit to the questions.

Jenia Rand asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

This isn’t a ?, just a word of thanks. I was introduced to the Vorkosigan saga this June and today I finished Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen. Thank you so very much for creating this universe full of crazy, real, lovable characters! For the last 5 months your books brought me hours of joy but also made me think and question myself. A separate “thank you”for the latter.
