Summary: Honor Harrington enters politics.
Review: After a disapointing third novel, David Weber returns with a novel of political rather than inter-stellar warfare. It works rather well, as The Great Space Battle as the centerpiece of three novels grew somewhat stale.Honor's foray into the world of politics brings with it mystery, intrigue and emotion which, for this reader, has lent new life and added dimensions to the Honor Harrington series. At the very least, Field of Dishonor leaves us with an understanding of Honor Harrington that is far deeper and more complex than when we began it. The end of the novel, of course, leaves the door wide open for future installments, but does so in such a way that the series has a chance to start from scratch. Most loose ends are tied up save for the great Manticoran/Haven conflict which still looms in the background. Given that, Weber is free to take Honor almost anywhere with his next novel... ...and I am eager to follow.

Summary: Great book, but the cover art!
Review: Another great episode in the Honor Harrington series. I have never been disappointed, despite the fact that I rarely read SF anymore and never really cared for "hard SF". My one complaint? The coverart makes Honor look like Michael and/or LaToya Jackson! Please, use another model in the future!

Summary: A good read
Review: But the plot(s) and character(s) are simply trite and boring. Honor is just way too good to be true, and all the problems she face are external, which makes the story very straightforward. Turn your brain off when you read it

Summary: Honor Harrington is Horatio Hornblower in outer space!
Review: David Weber has created a wonderful series with the flavor of the Hornblower books set in the seas of space rather than the oceans of Earth. Honor is a strong and intelligent female character whose actions live up to her name. Her adventures are exciting and her reactions human. I recommend this series highly.

Summary: Courts-martial, treachery and death!
Review: David Weber's books just keep getting better and better! Here's the fourth book of the series, and Honor Harrington must fight on a different battlefield. Honor returns from Hancock Station (The Short Victorious War), transporting Captain Lord Pavel Young, who stands accused of cowardice in the face of the enemy. If found guilty, the sentence is death. However, through surprising twists and turns, someone else dies first. Honor takes a sabbatical for a while, as her command, HMS Nike, is in the slips for major overhaul and refitting following the pounding she received at the hands of the Peeps. She returns to Grayson to take up her duties as Steadholder. When her former executive officer stops by, she receives news that causes her to hot-foot it back to Manticore. What happens next is the tale of her courageous fight for justice in the face of political intrigue and compromise, and how that same compromise winds up treating her even more unfairly than any enemy action. Read it. Honor's legend keeps growing, and it is well justified. What keeps me reading, more than anything else, is that she continues to be a very real and sometimes vulnerable person, despite a record of achievement that is reaching mythic proportions. Did I say read it? No, absorb it, dwell in it. In an earlier review I said that, speaking as a sailor myself, Honor is the kind of CO I want to work for. I'll go farther - Honor's the kind of CO I'd kill for and die for. 'Nuff said.

Summary: Heroes in a dark age
Review: David Weber's character is very much who many of us would like to be... capable, focused, and most of all, uncompromising. In a world where compromise is an accepted, and on the whole necessary fact of life, Dame Captain Harrington has a luxury you and I do not. She may, and most often does, take direct, decisive action to solve her problems. And *that* dear friend, is something we would all dearly love to do! Where my young heroes were Han Solo and Mad Max, and my maturing hero was Indiana Jones, I now have Honor Harrington to model myself after, and I know I need her, as we all continue to evolve, and we all need someone to inspire us.

Summary: Not the best Honor book
Review: Excellent book, great read. Space version of Horatio Hornblower. This book is probably the Darkest of the series and I would say Honor really hits bottom in this book. It shows how cold a hero can get when they hit bottom and the friends who will walk through hell for them just to help even the score. Again good book, and a great read.

So' It's up to her friends and allies to give her a little help. she finally gets revenge on Young at the cost of what she loves. The best read so far and leaves you waiting for the next title.
