I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Do not despair, Toddson. The Sharing Knife: Horizons came out in hardback this week. It was apparently available to read online for the last month.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I think that Borders won't be carrying Horizons, but that's due more to their business problems than anything to do with the book.

Excellent news, Barb!

It's the fourth Sharing Knife book. I am not particularly enthused by the Sharing Knife series.
Miles! Miles! Miles!

Miles! Miles! Miles!
Although really I want an Ivan book. I want Ivan to meet his Cordelia. (Not that Cordelia would have had any patience with Ivan, but still--he needs to be knocked off his feet by someone that awesome. [Um, not Byerly.][Not that there's anything wrong with that.]{But I don't think Barrayar is ready for that yet.})

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Barb, that's so awesome! YAY you!
And oooh, 4th Sharing Knife? I like it better than the Miles series, but I know this is quite a minority opinion!
