I don't think it makes you a snob; you just have a preference. There's nothing wrong with that. Besides, you've made me want to read 'The Mirror Empire!'

I do disagree about 'Ancillary Justice,' however. I found it very engaging, and thought there was much to recommend it beyond the exploration of gender -- the quiet, creeping terror that comes over Breq as she realizes both what's happened to the Lord of the Radch and what the Lord of the Radch has done to her; the slow development of affection between her and Seivarden; the anger and sorrow she feels over Awn; the circumstances surrounding the outbreak of civil war; the space opera-y feel of the final chapters. I also liked how clean and efficient the prose was, but I can understand how that style wouldn't be for everyone.

That said, I don't think you missed anything by skipping 'Ancillary Sword.' I thought it was a huge let-down.
