One of the things I love about the books is the number and variety of foils: Ivan vs Miles, Miles Vorkosigan vs Admiral Naismith, Cordelia vs the whole of Barrayaran society...
Since I started almost at the end of the series (to date, anyway), I find the timelines more helpful than not. Although they are kind of spectacularly spoilerific, aren't they!
