Wow, I have two! Surprising for me and recent stuff. (2000 is still
recent, isn't it?)

Both the Vinge and the MacLeod. I prefer Vinge, but don't regret
the MacLeod.

Reminds me that I'm due for another run through Fire/Deepness/Children.

Is there anybody here who'd recommend internal chronology rather than
publication order for those?
