She's survived ship-to- ship battles, assassins, political vendettas, and duels. She's been shot at, shot down, and just plain shot, had starships blown out from under her, and made personal enemies who will stop at nothing to ruin her, and somehow she's survived it all.But this time she's really in trouble.The People's Republic of Haven has finally found an admiral who can win battles, and Honor's orders take her straight into an ambush. Outnumbered, outgunned, and unable to run, she has just two options: see the people under her command die in a hopeless, futile battle... or surrender them-and herself- to the Peeps.There can be only one choice, and at least the People's Navy promises to treat their prisoners honorably. But the Navy is overruled by the political authorities, and Honor finds herself bound for a prison planet aptly named "Hell"... and her scheduled execution.Put into solitary confinement, separated from her officers and her treecat Nimitz, and subjected to systematic humiliation by her gaolers, Honor's future has become both bleak and short. Yet bad as things look, they're about to get worse ...for the Peeps.At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).A lifetime military history buff, David Weber has carried his interest in history into his fiction. In the New York Times best selling Honor Harrington series, the spirit of both C.S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower and history's Admiral Nelson are evident. With over five million copies of his books in print, David Weber is the fastest rising star in the Science Fiction universe. His Honor Harrington series boasts over 3 million copies in print, and Weber has had over thirteen of his titles on The New York Times Best Seller List. War of Honor, book 10 in the series appeared on over twelve Best Seller lists, including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and USA TODAY.While he is best known for his spirited, modern-minded space operas, he has also developed a fantasy series, of which two books have been published: Oath of Swords and The War God's Own. David's solo work also includes three novels of the "Dahak" series, and the stand alone novels: Path of the Fury and The Excalibur Alternative.Weber's first published novels grew out of his work as a war game designer for the Task Force game Starfire. With collaborator Steve White, Weber has written four novels set in that universe: Insurrection, Crusade, In Death Ground, and The Shiva Option.Recent bestsellers in planetary adventures also include the teamwork of John Ringo in the best selling Empire of Man series where the titles March Upcountry, March to the Sea, March to the Stars and We Few have made appearances on The New York Times List.Weber's proliferation continues with author Eric Flint, where they joined forces in the Best Selling "Ring of Fire" alternate history series, for 1634: The Baltic War, coming in May.A popular guest at science fiction conventions, Weber makes his home in South Carolina with his wife Sharon, three children and a passel of dogs.Revue de presse"Honor, my favorite space war character, doesn't give up easily when In Enemy Hands.

It isn't great literature, but it is very good at what it does and for the genre. It is like a good popcorn March Upcountry This was an odd book. On one hand, it had a lot of action, March Upcountry was good, and it had some interesting characters whom you could come to enjoy seeing in a series, of which this is the first book. March Upcountry. David WeberJohn Ringo. He was young, handsome, athletic, an excellent dresser, and third in line for the Throne of Man Why wouldn't even his own mother, the Empress, explain why they didn't trust him? Or why the very mention of his March Upcountry name was forbidden at Court? Or why his mother had decided to pack him off to a backwater planet aboard what was little March Upcountry than a tramp freighter to represent March Upcountry at a local political event better suited March Upcountry a third assistant undersecretarv of state? It probably wasn't too surprising that someone in his position should react by becoming spoiled, selfcentered and petulant. After all, what else did he have to do with his life? But that was before a saboteur tried to blow up his transport. Then warships of the Empire of Man's worst rivals shot the crippled vessel out of space.

In his rousin. In his rousing second Honorverse novel after 's Crown of Slavescoauthored with Eric FlintWeber focuses on how each member of a unit contributes to the mission's success through teamwork, discipline and individual initiative. A scratch task force is dispatched to a series of fringe systems that have petitioned to join the Manticoran Space Nation. What is supposed to be a relatively easy assignment to a sector far from the front lines of the renewed Havenite War is soon complicated both by terrorists who oppose the annexation and by corrupt elements of the Solarian League—the major The Shadow of Saganami in Weber's universe—who don't want the stiff- necked Manties sniffing around their highly illegal and lucrative genetic slave trade. Weber emphasizes the role that tradition plays in inspiring The Shadow of Saganami lads and lasses in uniform, reminding the reader that a hero can be anyone who does his or her job with honor, commitment and skill. All rights reserved. The Star Kingdom has a new generation of officers! And this elite group hand-picked and trained by Honor Harrington herself is going to be needed immediately, as their first assignment turns out to be more dangerous than anyone expected.

The Gastan also reveals that the Empress has laid the blame for the attempt against the throne on none other than her youngest son, Roger. Worse to be sent off on a meaningless diplomatic mission, simply to get you out from underfoot, with a bodyguard of Marines who loathe and despise you. Roger and his guards continue to fight their way towards the gates, incurring serious casualties in the process, including Cord who is seriously wounded when he interposes himself between Roger and a spear that had been thrown at him. Some parts can be a bit confusing if you aren't paying attention, especially when many different "Tribes" get involved, but it's Military Sci-fi and "Out of the box thinking" at it's best Which is what we expect from both Ringo AND Weber You have to build your relationship with the characters before you care about whether they live or breed, for that matter. He prefers to read and of course write science fiction such as the top-selling military SF series so far comprising A Hymn Before Battle, Gust Front, and When the Devil Dances , raise Arabian horses, dandle his kids and watch the grass grow. You could not find better! With Temu Jin's information and assistance on the inside, Roger, his marines, his Mardukan retainers and Shin warriors manage to storm and take control of the spaceport with few casualties and Pahner personally and with immense satisfaction locates Governor Mountmarch who's found with a naked year-old boy in his quarters and places him under arrest for treason and pedophilia.

For the best experience on our site, be sure A Call to Duty turn on Javascript in your browser. Growing up, Travis Uriah A Call to Duty yearned for order and discipline in his life. So when Travis enlisted in the Royal Manticoran Navy, he thought he'd finally found the structure he'd always wanted so desperately. But life in the RMN isn't exactly what he expected. Boot camp is rough and frustrating; his first ship assignment lax and disorderly; and with the Star Kingdom of Manticore still recovering from a devastating plague, the Navy is A Call to Duty on the edge of extinction. The Star Kingdom is a minor nation among the worlds of the Diaspora, its closest neighbors weeks or months away, with little in the way of resources. With only modest interstellar trade, no foreign contacts to speak of, a plague-ravaged economy to rebuild, and no enemies looming at the hyper limit, there are factions in Parliament who want nothing more than to scrap the Navy and shift its resources and manpower elsewhere.
