What is Lee and Miller's BEST Work? You decide!

[rolanni]

OK! Here's some fun. Far more often than seldom, a review will appear -- either in a professional venue, or in a blog, or on Amazon, which states, "While X is not up to Lee and Miller's BEST work..." (robotech_master, yours is only one in a long line). This sort of thing has always seemed...like a bit of a cheat...to me, because, yanno, here's this reader who knows what Lee and Miller's BEST work is -- and they're not going tell you!

Dirty pool, I say.

So, here's your chance. Below is a list of longer Liaden works. Which is the Best? Choose one and only one, then! Defend your choice in comments.

Have at it.

Scout's Progress

[sfblackl.livejournal.com]

I voted for Scout's Progress since it is the one I re-read the most. It is also one that I can read just by itself, while I can't read Agent of Change without diving into Carpe Diem.

The book, along with Local Custom and Conflict of Honors, has the 'classic' Lee/Miller romantic challenge which just sucks me in and leaves me feeling happy. Of those 3, I think I just like the characters and the backdrop more of Progress.

Very tough choice.

I'm guessing that Mouse and Dragon will be changing that :)

having just read the preview chapters of Mouse and Dragon up on Baen's site, I agree. Scout's Progress and Mouse and Dragon have a wonderful storyline. It would be really hard to read one without following directly to the other, after M&D comes out in print.
