Lois McMaster Bujold has won a shelf full of awards--Hugos,
Nebulas, and others--for both her science fiction and fantasy
writing. She is one of the most respected names in the field,
always delivering polished, thoughtful, and well-crafted writing.
She consistently addresses great issues and problems on a human
level, where they are faced by quirky, prickly, and very real
characters, and her exploration of the theory of reader-response is
an important critical contribution. Yet there has been a surprising
dearth of serious critical writing about her output--in part
because she resists neat and easy classification by genre,
politics, or subject matter. This collection of fresh essays aims
to correct that situation by presenting a variety of critical
perspectives addressing many aspects of her writing. Attention is
given to both her Miles Vorkosigan science fiction series and her
Chalion and Sharing Knife fantasy series, as well as the books that
fall outside these series.
