It's the fourth Sharing Knife book. I am not particularly enthused by the Sharing Knife series.
Miles! Miles! Miles!
I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

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."

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
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
[Um, not Byerly.][Not that there's anything wrong with that.]{But I don't think Barrayar is ready for that yet.})

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!

Our wings are not tired.
Yay Barb! Go you with the well deserved recognition.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
As if we didn't have enough reason to admire the pilot who safely landed that plane in the Hudson...

Oh my! Seriously, this Sully dude does more than his fair share to alter the balance of good guys to idiots.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
ok, so I accidentally signed up for a four week course on the newbery award. ( Really , i was answering a survey that I had no idea was a contract to take a course.) othere than the 12 billion articles per week I also have about 12 books to read:
so anyone have favorites from the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s .
course will be talking about the original purpose , current purpose and general relevance of the newbery.
