vorkosiganThe last readthrough was supposed to be The Warrior's Apprentice AND "The Mountains of Mourning," but I'm forgetful and we only talked about The Warrior's Apprentice, and I said that next time we were only going to talk about "The Mountains of Mourning."
Whoops!
So, to get us back on track, let's do "The Mountains of Mourning" AND The Vor Game on July 1, how's that? Can people do both?
ETA: It's been pointed out that MoM is much closer thematically to The Warrior's Apprentice than Vor Game, so let's do an emergency discussion about just MoM on June 21 (that's in two days). Then we can do Vor Game as scheduled on July 1. :)

(The answer is, of course, that the readthrough is an attempt at chronological order, with the exception of Falling Free which doesn't really make sense when read in chronological order.)

Can't we do a quick emergency MoM discussion in between and then move on to the Vor Game as scheduled? Thematically, I think MoM is much closer to Barrayar and TWA than Vor Game (which is very much Gregor's story, too, but I'm incredibly biased about Gregor anyway).
