Reviews
Praise for the Honor Harrington series:
". . . an outstanding blend of military/technical writing balanced by superb character development and an excellent degree of human drama . . . very highly recommended." -Wilson Library Bulletin on On Basilisk Station
"Honor fights her way with fists, brains, and tactical genius through a tangle of politics, battles, and cultural differences. Although battered, she ends this book with her honor-and the Queen's-intact." -Kliatt on The Honor of the Queen
"Packs enough punch to blast a starship to smithereens . . ." -Publishers Weekly on The Honor of the Queen
"This remarkable story will appeal to readers interested in warfare, science, and technology of the future or just in interpersonal relationships, an important part of the story. Gratifying, especially to female readers, is the total equality of the sexes!"-Kliatt on The Short Victorious War
"Great stuff . . . compelling combat combined with engaging characters for a great space opera adventure." -Locus on Field of Dishonor
"Star Wars as it might have been ritten by C.S. Forester . . . fast-paced entertainment." -Booklist on Honor Among Enemies
"Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!" -Anne McCaffrey on Echoes of Honor
"Weber combines realistic engaging characters with intelligent technological projection and a deep understanding of military bureaucracy." -Publishers Weekly on Mission of Honor
"[A] fast-paced and action-packed story . . . builds . . . to an exciting and unexpected climax." -Daily News of Galveston on Shadow of Freedom
