Hello! A question about contraceptive implants on Barrayar - could women make these medical decisions for themselves, or was a husband or father's permission required? (To either get, or remove, the implant?) This might influence decisions for certain of my favourite couples who are betrothed but not yet married. There are references such as "observing the traditions, at least, as far as Mama and Da know ..." TY!

Lois McMaster Bujold:
Are the Vorkosigan Saga's two hatchet-faced men related? Cordelia's first impresson of Sgt. Bothari matches Tej's first impression of Emperor Gregor in this vividly evocative way. Bothari has protection within the military despite the trouble that his Yuri-like disorder causes, and his dislike of Vor seems like it could stem from feelings of abandonment. Is Bothari a son (maybe even the eldest) of Ezar?

Lois McMaster Bujold:
I've been reading your Vorkosigan saga novels for two months and yesterday I had a "shower thought" and I'd like to know if I'm guessing correctly: the 'Vor' prefix is the reverse of 'rov', which is a suffix used in many russian names. Am I right? I tried to read some of the names in reverse and they sound quite alright (at least for my 'romanian ear').
