No, it's not a short story compilation. Yes, I liked it. A lot. I'm really looking forward to being able to re-read it in the final form, and also hoping that there is an Audible version of it.
Dragon in Exile is the first of 5 Liaden novels contracted by Baen. Which has already been supplemented by 2 additional Liaden novels under contract. This one loops in some key characters from Necessity's Child, so if you haven't read that, you may miss some nuances, but that isn't strictly speaking required.
Yes, there is some PoV changing going on - it's a UNIVERSE, and story lines interact, diverge, overlap, and splinter. I didn't find it distracting or a problem. But I was definitely left wanting MORE.
