I think I probably have to do the same, read around her. It's interesting that your comment 'it doesn't do the series any good at all" crystallized a reaction in me. Now that I analyze it I find I'm not nearly as eager to get back to catching up on Ring of Fire as I was to catch up on the Honor Harrington series. For me that's directly related to a distinct reluctance to have to wade through more DeMarce on the way to the finish line. It was feeling more like a chore than a pleasure.
Time to play hookey and skip the chores I think.
