Winterfair Gifts?!? Is that a Miles book?? I never heard of it! Where does 
it come in the series? The last one I read was Diplomatic Immunity.

MY favourite is Mirror Dance. I really like Mark, so I enjoy the focus on 
him. It's fascinating how Bujold explores both his similarities and his 
differences to Miles.

Before that, it was Brothers in Arms that I liked best.
