"Inspired..." (Fan-fiction)
Some LMB fans were inspired by her books to their own works... You can be offended and scream " It isn't true! " - but the acquaintance promises to be curious.

  • Y. Mihailova - "Kora" cycle: "The start", "An unexpected ally"; "A presage".
    Take LMB universe, turn it upside down, change toponims a little, use former names for totally new characters, and it will be a story about Kora, Emperor's sister and ImpSec officer.
  • V.Chesnokov, "A sight from under a carpet ", "The Escobaran".
    How powerful is, it appears, these Betan & Eascobaran Intelligence Service! Their activity is the underlying cause of all barrayaran troubles and confusions...
  • Delenn, three short stories from her "Barrayarian Cycle" (the episodes only mentioned in Saga, such as "a talk in the green silk room").
    And "The Committee" - a fantastical mix of Barrayar, Dune and "Babylon-5" that forms a universe of the Time Committee...
  • Dart Vader, "Labirinth for madmen".
    Is it an adventure quest or a story about two Vorish by-blows who realized their duty? Anyway, here's an alternative history of Emperor Ezar's last times.
  • A.Balabchenkov, "Chronicles of the galactic politics".
    The verbatim report of Interstellar Assembly's meeting which took place shortly after the Cetagandan invasion to Marilac. As you can see, then they failed to resolve this problem by the means of diplomacy...
  • K.Frolov, "The beginning, or How it would be...".
    Political satire. Why not? However, all singular coincidences are accidental...
  • Nick Sakva, "Dynasty of the Butchers".
    Biography of all Vorkosigan family is narrated in the form of besteller novels printed by the Whole Jackson's publishing house.
  • E.Smolyanina, A.Hodosh, "The true story of the Maiden of Lake".
    The poetic legend recounts us about event of Bloody Centuries days, but it withholds something...
  • Helen, "Happy birthday!".
    Workaday routine of Cetagandan Chief of Custom is monotonous and boring. What can relieve it? Only greetings from homeworld...
  • Aiden, "Shards of history".
    Damn betans! Owing to their influence Barrayaran proles along with the Parliament claim to overthrow The Emperor Gregor the Second, and only the true Vor can rescue The Imperium.

Interactive fan-fiction - aka the unfinished one. Authors of these stories are waiting for your interesting thought of the plot. Write us!

  • Y.Mikhailova, A.Zaretskyi, "Heretics of Barrayar". LMB consider that the Barrayarans are not the faithful. But fancy that in Gregor's time the Barrayaran Chirch revives and grows a menace for Emperor's reign and power.
  • S.Baiteryakov, Y.Kortneva "Second letter in the alphabet". If you are a plain man from Betan Astronomical Survey, could you became a Vor? And what it will come to?

Poetry

  • Delenn's verses - not only two poems from the e-fanzine "Babylosha" but also all her "Barrayarian Cycle".
  • a rollicking March of Dendarii guerilla soldiers, performed to the accompaniment of guitar by A. Balabchenkov;
  • the romantic medieval ballade in Scotch Style issued from Kelli's (Dina Bromberg) pen.
  • Dart Vader, "Civil war". Short and piercing rhyme.
  • Anri, "Ballade about family traditions". How Lords Vorkosigan use to get married.
  • Eovin, "The plot". The nightmare of a paranoiac Emperor of Barrayar.
  • Smolika, "Romance". The older Vor lady sighs for her youth while Vorbarr-Sultana sparkes by romance and weddings.
  • Anri, "The kiss". If only Miles has a poetry talent, he would write this rhyme for Ekatherin.
  • Smolika, "Time of Isolation". How delightful are evenings in the capital city...
