Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. This is an interesting selection of short stories. Barter, Garage Sale, The Hole Truth are all with substantially different settings than her later work. Fans of her Vorkosigan series will appreciate the elements of humor in those three stories. The far future settings of Dreamweaver's Dilemma wand Aftermaths would be more familiar to her fans. The Dreamweaver's Dilemma is the lighter of the last two stories. Aftermaths reflect on Bujold's ability to build a multi-dimensional spacefaring universe and to move her audience in the space of a few sentences. ( ) no reviews | add a review
