Any chance of Curse of Chalion and Paladin of Souls being rereleased? Perhaps as matching books or even as a set?
Lois McMaster Bujold
Don't forget The Hallowed Hunt in that set wish!
Anyway, it's not up to me. Print rights are held by HarperCollins, who may do with them as they wish. In general, paper reprints of older books are only financially feasible if it's done in coordination with release of a new frontlist novel, and sometimes not even then.
Right now -- I just checked -- you can buy the original hardcover editions of all three titles used starting at a penny plus postage on Amazon. (For rather more, you can buy unused ones signed from Uncle Hugo's Science Fiction Bookstore here in Minneapolis.) This is not something a publisher can compete with, for small-demand items.

Backwards book rec, by asking if you've read "The Domestic Revolution: How the Introduction of Coal into Victorian Homes Changed Everything" by Ruth Goodman? It made me think of Fawn, and the ways she's cooked. I hadn't realized how different life built around wood combustion was, compared to all the things that had to be introduced as homes shifted to coal. Also touches on domestic issues in the 5 gods world
