I just finished all of your Vorkosigan books and I loved them! For the majority of them I listened to the audio version during my commute to and from work. There were to items that seem to have changed pronunciation as the series progressed. Dendarii changed from den-der-ee, to d den-der-ee-eye. Galeni changed from guh-len-eye to guh-len-ee. Can you tell me which are the most appropriate? Thanks! Andy

The recordings were made in different orders, some before the narrator was able to catch up with me for pronunciations. So I'm not surprised it's a bit random. Dendarii is den-DARE-ee, Galeni is gah-LEE-ni.

For the collected novella versions of Penric, do they include the original covers? Having seen a couple of Dan Dos Santos’s amazing covers, now I want them. But I am not an ebook guy, and missed all the previous editions. I have been waiting for them to come out in relatively affordable collected editions as Mass market pb or Trade pb.

Did you know the cloning aspects of the Vorkosigan Universe are used as examples by Hank Greely of Stanford's Center for Law And Biosciences? It's really wonderful to listen to him praise FALLING FREE (after 17:00, several places) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-MIGpKYJDk
