Very close to the end of this thing, and I'm not sure how I feel; on one hand, the ideas are fantastic and the world really works, at least Winter/Gethen does. I'm told that the Hainish novels don't tie together particularly well so I'll reserve that judgement for now.
On the other hand it's glacially paced and Le Guin really wants me to sit and think with her ideas rather than be entertained, and that's fine but..
