The reading order I ended up with is basically internal chronological, with a few minor changes, which, in my opinion, make all the difference in terms of optimal reading enjoyment. After I gobbled down all the Miles books available, I switched to reading the new ones as soon as they came out. I read the first twelve Miles books in 2000 at the time, A Civil Campaign was the end of the series. Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen my vorkosigan saga reading order for ultimate enjoyment (chronological, with a few tweaks) Komarr, A Civil Campaign and Winterfair Gifts are collected in the omnibus edition Miles in Love. The Borders of Infinity, Brothers in Arms and Mirror Dance are collected in the omnibus edition Miles Errant.ġ3.

The second is the order I read them in, which is basically chronological (with a few tweaks) and is the order I recommend for first-time Vorkosigan readers.ġ0. Below are two options for a satisfying Vorkoisgan Saga reading order. Never fear! Your friendly neighborhood Vorkosigan geek is here to help. With sixteen books, five novellas, and a whole slew of omnibus editions, it’s hard to know where to start. But if you’re just starting your journey into this wonderful universe, the Vorkosigan Saga reading order can be confusing.

I know it so well that I can easily pick up any book in the series and know immediately where I am in time and space.

The series is so beloved to me that I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve reread it. Lois Bujold’s Vorkosigan Saga is my favorite science fiction series ever. You can catch her on Instagram shouting about the queer books she loves and sharing photos of the walks she takes in the hills of Western Mass (while listening to audiobooks, of course). In addition to her work at Book Riot, she reviews for BookPage and AudioFile, and writes a weekly newsletter, Books & Bakes, celebrating queer lit and tasty treats. Laura Sackton is a queer book nerd and freelance writer, known on the internet for loving winter, despising summer, and going overboard with extravagant baking projects.
