Inquiring author wants to know

[rolanni]

In your opinion, what is the:

Darkest Liaden book?

Lightest Liaden book?

Please show your work, by which I mean, explain your choice.

NOTE:  Since the eArc of Dragon in Exile is available and some folks have read it, it may be nominated for either of the above categories.  HOWEVER, since the official publication date is not yet upon us, please, if you do nominate DiE, leave a spoiler space before your explanation, out of compassion for those who wait for the retail release.  Thanks.

Darkest/Lightest

[catherine ives (from livejournal.com)]

Darkest actually two books: Scout's Progress and Mouse and Dragon.
The story of Aelliana Caylon which is a sad one.

the lightest: Fledgling: the amusing beginning of the story of Theo as she learns from her father Jen Sar. Jen Sar is a foreigner and Theo's genes don't fit in either. It's very amusing.
