Just started the Vorkosigan Saga. It's okay. It's growing on me, but I don't think it's anything to write home about. I'll stick it out through the first book and see how it goes.
Which book are you starting with? You'll get a very different vibe depending on whether you're starting with Dreamweaver's Dilemma, Shards of Honor, or The Warrior's Apprentice.
It's a long series with a super wide range. If you like Warrior's Apprentice, you'll probably like most of the series.
Started with shards of honor. Any recommendations on which one I should read next?
I was about to pick up Seveneves next. And then come back to the Vorkosigan Saga.
Either Barrayar (it directly continues the story from Shards) or Warrior's Apprentice (published the same year as Shards, different story arc but relevant characters).
Thanks for the recommendation. I heard Warrior's Apprentice was rather basic. What's your opinion on it, if you don't mind me asking?
Audacious.
Miles, the main character, has tremendous audacity, and I found it hilarious!
Huh, now I'm going to have to start re-reading the series :)
