Ah, I see what you mean. I was thinking of other things, which I won't go into 'cause of spoilers.
The attractiveness thing is, I think, a valid criticism. However, Miles is a bit more interesting than the average deformed hero, because he's not just unattractive; he's disabled, and IIRC most of the emphasis (at least in the earlier books) is placed on that aspect of his situation, rather than his looks.
