Review:No this is not an action packed book as insinuated by my title but I am not a reader and this book had me in the palm of its hand and I finished it in a mere two days. I really enjoyed the read and became very sad when it was over.5 stars! Read more
Review:The writing is, as always, excellent, but the story about Honor's parents... it seemed off, only because there was never a hint of anything like it in the main books. Otherwise, a nice little collection. Read more
Review:Excellent yarn in the line of the Hornblower saga but hundred of years in the future. Lots of space battles and a interesting heroine.
Howewer, long chapters are lost with long and boring "political" discussions. I like science fiction and Weber writes good one, but he deviates with "political science 1.o1" of future star kingdoms. Read more

Review:David Weber is one of the finest authors that I have had the pleasure of reading. The series featuring Honor area wonderful read. The cast of characters are fascinating and complete people you would like to meet. The villains are dastardly. The story line is captivating. Read more
Review:The first half of the book was excellent and answers questions left unanswered from previous books. The later half of the book was essentially describing characters in all of the books along with space ships, weapons, and politicalentities, etc. While very good for those readers that are deeply involved with the series I found it tedious to read and boring.

Review:I loved the boldness of her arrival in Haven and the forthright way she dealt with the bureacrates. Her ability to read the opponents aids her in the negotiations. For once it was good to read one of Webers novels and not having thousands of people being killed. Others will enjoy this new aspect of Honor's chosen field. Read more
Review:To much of this book, this story, has been tòd before in other honerverse books and short stories. There are new big events, but not enough to justify a novel. Any more honor verse books like this and I'm checking out. Read more
