By any chance, do you know if they will be translating Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen to Croatian? Thank you all the same if you do not know. Sara Also, my grandmother, 91 year old voracious reader, has finally given in and allowed me to give her an SF book, short story-now she's hooked on Vorkosigans

I have no idea if a Croatian publisher will make an offer on Gentleman Jole. But I'm glad to hear I have a new reader! Good work.
bests, Lois.
bests, Lois.

All of the Murderbot novellas are very good - recommend. I'm thoroughly enjoying a re-read, building up to the novel that's just been released. Fascinating to see here how little gap there was between you finishing the latest Penric and it appearing online - is that a record?

More about names in the World of the Five Gods: I live in Catalonia, and it seems to me that various names in Chalion have a kind of pseudo-Catalan feel to them, without actually being Catalan. But Foix is a Catalan place name, pronounced Fosh, and also a southern-French name, pronounced Fwa. You're not J. R. R. Tolkien, so you probably haven't created complete languages to fill up your world. Is there any rationale?

You may have had this question before, but here goes: this wonderful garden at the Viceroy's palace which Ekatherin has designed, is it made out of Sergyaran native plants or imported plants? If the plants are imported, how to keep them from spreading out into the Sergyaran countryside? And if the plants originate from Sergyar, how did Ekatherin know which ones to use and so on, seeing as the planet is "brand new"?
