HaHA! My cunning plan worked. Next step is to get everyone sick and tired of all the clicking and decide what they really need is to buy the book.

My first response was “Whaaaa? But Ivan Vorpatril’s such a slacker! He’s nothing like Darvin!!” But then my husband reminded me of a number of Ivan’s other qualities, so I guess I can see your point.

Actually, I am fond of Ivan. I read in an interview that the next Vorkosigan book Ms. Bujold has planned will feature a young Ivan, and this makes me very happy.

Yarg. Those links to previous chapters are dangerous. I read all the way from the link back up to now.

Love how she implies that being at IP is a lesser job than being at TerSA. She misses the point that its an IP guy who invented FTL. Doesn’t strike me as ‘lesser’ at all.

“…And?” I’m sensing an “and” to Darvin’s answer coming soon…

It just occured to me, Darvin seems to share a lot of similarities with Ivan Vorpatril. Perhaps they both went to the same school for Artful Dodgers?

Well, this is pretty similar to what he said then, too…

“Support the Jump Engine! It’ll Make Everyone’s Lives Better!”
