message: Are you sure about Shards of Honor being set five years before Miles' birth?  It ends with Cordelia and Aral getting married, and she became pregnant almost immediately afterwards (she tells Drou this in Barrayar when asked how she first knew she was pregnant).  Unless the action in Shards of Honor lasts for a very long time, I think one year before Miles' birth would be closer.

replies: text: The action in Shards of Honor does indeed last a very long time: there might well be a several-year lapse between the first meeting of Aral and Cordelia (can't recall whether on Escobar or Sergyar) and their marriage. HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 11:08, September 6, 2005 (UTC) 
I thought 'The Reader's Chair' went kaput a while back - can anyone confirm? (Re: audiobooks) -Martha 72.81.40.136 17:48, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I added the links for all except Diplomatic Immunity, which is already linked to its own independent article. (Any clues as to why it warrants its own article, while the rest don't?) -Martha 72.81.40.136 17:43, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't "Miles in Love" come before "Miles, Mutants and Microbes" in the list of the Omnibus editions, since Diplomatic Immunity (included in the latter) takes place after the stories in the former collection? Saffran (talk) 14:33, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

message: The first paragraph says this:
:Bujold is one of the most acclaimed writers in her field, having won the prestigious Hugo Award for best novel four times, matching Robert A. Heinlein's record.
This is no longer accurate, because a Retro Hugo was awarded to Heinlein in 2001 for 'Farmer in the Sky'.

replies: text: The Retro Hugo is a retrospective award, not counted as a regular Hugo would be. - Dravecky (talk) 15:21, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: And yet, her list of Hugos in the lower part of the page shows five awards, plus a special award for a series. This leads me to believe she's actually in the lead. I don't want to edit it because I don't have time to research. Someone should look into it. Alan (talk) 15:32, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

message: , the table approach for the Hugo/Locus/Nebula awards is interesting, but when you converted the lists to the table, you left out the years for wins and nominations. Please incorporate that info as well. Schazjmd (talk) 23:20, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for pointing that out. I've added the year as listed on [SFADB http://www.sfadb.com/Lois_McMaster_Bujold_Chronology]. (Each award has its own year, which is a bit confusing, so I just went with what SFADB uses.) Olivaw-Daneel (talk) 23:40, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
