Sorry to keep off-tracking this Honor Harrington thread [no, not *very* sorry; bound and determined to win some more Miles converts]. I first read a free online short from the middle of the series and was enchanted and hooked. Doesn't seem to be available online anywhere now; drat! Descriptions of Miles "the main character, Miles Vorkosigan is physically disabled, but his intelligence makes up for any physical deficiencies" ... "brains, guts, and character". Actually, one review suggests that many women like the series a lot *because* the hero has to use his brains to get out of fixes, rather than his brawn (which he lacks).
Anyway, I DID download and will try out Honor Harrington, too. I'm not just shilling for Miles.
