Honor Harrington is back again, along with some of her old adversaries, kicking
butt and taking names! Fans of this series will remember that Honor managed to save
the Queen from assassination, only to see the Prime Minister and other old allies
die. Without Cromarty, the government doesn't hold in the Star Kingdom of Manticore
and Honor's internal adversaries take over. As the story picks up, the baddies have
been in charge for several years. Coruption is rampant, and the Havenites are
starting to re-organize because they can't seem to conclude a peace treaty (which
would end the war-time taxes that are helping fund the corruption.
With so many enemies (both within and without the Star Kingdom), how can Honor
possible prevail again?? You know the formula. And you know how well it works.
That's why we all keep coming back over and over!
If you're the type of fan who likes to see things blown to kingdom come
after a shot or two, you probably won't appreciate David Weber's Honor Harrington
books. The physics, the military strategy, the political intrigue, and the human
interaction will probably be overwhelming.
