To all the Bujold fans on my f-list...

You were right.

I just finished Shards of Honor about an hour ago, and I would have posted before now, but I was too busy trying to hunt down copies (in vain) through the library. Sigh. Buying them in ebook form one at a time it is. It'll be worth it, as they definitely seem to have rereadability.

Anyway, thanks for the rec!
