Not really a question? I just finished Penric's Mission (I see you've managed to find a protagonist even crazier than Miles), and I thought you might get a small kick out of this picture. That statue's been sitting on my Bujold shelf for years, for no particular reason, but it's a neat bit of synchronicity. image link: http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/windfallswest/3564497/1673/1673_300.jpg

Hee. You may now dub it Madame Owl, I suppose...
Glad you like Penric. I'm enjoying him too.
Although I would maintain that Pen is quite sane. And so are the majority of the voices in his head, most of the time...
bests, Lois.

Hello Lois I thought the first Penric anthology looked a little underrated on Amazon.es (Amazon Spain) so I thought I´d add this review (in Spanish) under Clariana: https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/1982124296?pf_rd_p=17a988a6-15ad-46df-8d9f-8365d36240ce&pf_rd_r=NAMA654AE8ECH1RKHT29 Do you have a Spanish translator for the Penric novellas yet?

Lois McMaster Bujold:
While reading a book about math errors my mind kept turning toward Prof. Vorthys and "engineering failure analysis". In many cases you likely don't have or need specific math details in stories. But I am aware many folks are math-phobic. Does that ever motivate you to slide over mathmatical details? I also wondered if you ever find math fun and creative in itself or is it more a means to an end?
