So many people doing so many other things while Miles was the main character!
Oh, indeed. You have Cordelia & Aral, and Mark and Kareen, and Alys & Simon (dear me, it is rather heteronormative, isn't it?), and Ivan and By and Gregor; the Durona collective; Duv Galeni; the various Koudelka gals... plus all the other worlds: Beta, Jackson's Whole, Escobar and Sergyar and Tau Ceta. And the Dendarii, of course.
It's actually a pretty rich world for ficwriting, and there has been some great stuff written (although most of it is AU or Jossed).
I'm so torn. I always buy Bujold's books in hardcover on the release date, because her books have meant so much to me that I feel I owe it to her. But it's not coming out until November...
Well, I'm sure she'd get the money for this: it's not a pirated copy or anything.
I'm 10 pages away from the end of
A Brief History of Montmaray.
Can someone give me the name of the 2nd book so I can request it from the library (without having to play compare/contrast games between the library site and Amazon to try to figure out order)? Thanks!

Epic, the next one is FitzOsbornes in Exile, and the last one is FitzOsbornes at War.

To the Library website, away!
Thanks!
Epic, insent.
I'll have to wait until tonight to see it - work blocks emails and my phone's just a Dumbphone.

That exploding sound is Tim reaching the Big Revelation in the 6th Skulduggery Pleasant book (i.e.,
Skulduggery is Lord Vile,
which I honestly still don't know if I like or not [but regardless of whether I like it, it's HUGE]).
I keep making shit up and telling it to him, like "Clarabelle is Mevolent. I mean it!" (Of course, I do that with baseball, too, since he knows nothing of baseball and its rules. I really tried to convince him that, in the 8th inning --and ONLY the 8th inning -- if a player comes up to bat when there's 2 outs, if he gets a full count, he's allowed to punch the catcher in the head. He didn't believe me.)
