I love this series!! David Weber tells all teh sides and I love that I can like and respect the "enemies". I believe in the ideals of the military and the whys they fight. I think it fits in our times. The characters have heart and I enjoy falling for them. The relationship between Honor and Nimitz is wonderful. I too reread this series and enjoy it each time I read it.

Very rich, as usual. I cried a little - twice, when they watched the execution and at the end. I've read it easily half a dozen times - there are parts I could almost recite - but it still catches me. (

I read these out of order Which is a shame as there is a big and very definate story arc.
Weber's characters are steriotypical but both well enough drawn to keep you reading even when they Have names like
Rob S. Pierre: Why oh why Didnt his editor told him. (

Epigraph

Dedication

I would like to express my thanks to
Mark Newman,
Doctor of Maternal-Fetal Medicine.
I think you'll recognize the reason why when it comes around.

First words

It was still and very quiet in the palatial room. Four humans and thirteen treecats, four of them half-grown 'kittens, sat silently, eyes locked on the HD which showed only silent swirls of soothing, standby color.

Quotations

"All right, people. Let's be about it," she said.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0671578332, Mass Market Paperback)

David Weber provides intergalactic thrills and political intrigue in this far-flung military space adventure, continuing where In Enemy Hands left off. The People's Republic has publicly executed Honor Harrington--or have they? While the Star Kingdom swears revenge, Honor (alive and kicking) plans escape from the prison planet of Hell. Weber's extensive knowledge of military protocol combined with deep technical exploration make for a highly detailed book, yet he avoids bogging down in it. His great storytelling skills keep this book racing along like an action-adventure movie. Fans of Star Wars and old-fashioned seafaring tales will find lots to their liking here, as will those looking for a future setting in which women play an equal role. If you're new to the Honor series, start with On Basilisk Station, the first of Commander Honor Harrington's adventures.
