Master the Vorkosiverse!
"I've always tried to write the kind of book I most loved to read: character-centered adventure. Readers return to such books because those characters have become their friends, and there is no limit to the number of times you want to be with your friends again."
—Lois McMaster Bujold, from The Vorkosigan Companion.
It's the companion for everything Miles and Vorkosigan: Insightful essays, encyclopedic entries on the characters, the plots and—most of all—the fantastic world-building! Plus, an extensive story-behind-the-story essay on the creation of the books, and a Bujold mini-biography!
"Bujold mixes quirky humor with action [and] superb character development. [E]normously satisfying."
—Publishers Weekly

Product ReviewPrepare for skimming. If you are looking for deeper insight into the series and explanations of how things work that were not clearly stated in the novels, don't expect too much. There are a few things on that level but, most of it is tributes to the author, interviews with the author, and forewords to a few novels. I was mildly disappointed since very little herein was new to me and, I'm sure the same can be said for anyone else who has read the series in its entirety.
