You're absolutely correct; Ghost Ship was very shy and difficult. Part of that is because Ghost Ship has more moving parts than all three of the Carousel books stacked end-to-end.
In general, the Liaden books tend to be complicated to write, because of the multiple storylines and characters. But even then, some Liaden books more are more difficult than others -- In recent memory, Mouse and Dragon practically wrote itself and Necessity's Child was pleasantly easy to write. Ghost Ship and Trade Secret were among the most difficult.
