Book Review: Falling Free

I was under the impression that this Lois McMaster Bujold work lay outside the Vorkosigan saga, but a timeline at the back tells me it's set about 200 years before Barrayar. I see no further connections yet. Maybe it's like how the Foundation series follows the Robot series but feels different enough not to be bunched together. At any rate, no other volumes are set before this 1988 one, so you don't need to know anything in particular going in. And Bujold wastes little time getting to the key premises.
