More about the Mesan AlignmentBy Toki MikeIt has been more than 3 years since David Weber published Rising Thunder, the 12th Honor Harrington novel. But he and Eric Flint did publish Crown of Slaves in 2013 that tells us more about developments the Mesan Alignment and the planet Mesa. If we are lucky, Mr. Weber will resume the Harrington series in 2016. An early chapter shows that due to some unexpected reversals, the Alignment has to initiate the next major phase of its long-term plan before it is it wants to.Anton Zilwicki, Manticorersquo;s top spy, and Victor Cachet, Havenrsquo;s top spy, decide that they have to return to Mesa to find out more about the Mesan Alignment. It is the secret organization that destroyed a large portion of Manticorersquo;s defense industry and manipulated the Solarian League into starting a war with Manticore. Mesa, of course, is also the home of Manpower, the company that runs the interstellar genetic slave trade.Anton and Victor begin to suspect that the Alignment has initiated the next phase of its plan to literally conquer all of the human planets in the galaxy. And that phase has something to do with more terrorist attacks on Mesa that the Mesan government will blame them on the infamous but ldquo;innocentrdquo; Audubon Ballroomrdquo; a terrorist organization of ex-slaves that targets Manpower.The tension builds steadily until the nerve wracking final 100 pages. There are a few paragraphs of things like history or data on charitable giving by income but these are forgivable in a 540 page novel. And there are clues here and there that suggest Manticore and Haven have a chance to thwart the Alignmentrsquo;s next phase.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Best of the Crown of SlavesBy CustomerBy far my favorite of the sub-series. and one of my favorite Honor Harrington overall. You'll want to have read the earlier books first or you'll be totally lost, but if you've already come this far you will not be disappointed. Zilwicki continues to find connections no one else can see, Victor Cachet spins out some of his craziest make-this-up-as-we-go-along plans yet, and Thandi Palane does mayhem as only she can; having gone back to Mesa, even at their best they get in WAY over their heads.Military action is on the ground this time, no space battles, but still with David Weber's flair, and Flint seems to help him minimize the datadumps that sometimes break up the flow in the main series. If you've read this far, don't stop now!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. 3.6 out of five, until the end which is a six!By William N. SargentOne of Weber's better offerings in a while. Pacing is improved from some of his more recent entries thanks to less political intrigue, political maneuvering and just plain politics- and less detail (what the less generous might call "minutiae"). The actual down and dirty action is pretty sparse, world long, long way from basilisk station and Brayson. Still, a solid entry in the honor verse, and if we miss Duchess stadholder Harrington we at least have agreeable companions in Victor, Anton Thandi... although they show up less and do less in the final analysis. There also seems to be a serious lack of participation by characters who are rather prevalent in the first few chapters and vanish completely after an afterthought mention of them around the end of the first third of the book. For all intents and purposes, they only seem to exist to introduce the 'Sam Houston' archetype. I hate when that happens. Northern exposure was really bad about that, introducing characters or things and never mentioning them again after that episode. Seems that either Mr. Weber or Mr. Flint was a northern exposure fan. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER IN HARDCOVER. Sequel to national bestsellers Torch of Freedom and Crown of Slaves, Book Three in the Crown of Slaves, Honor Harrington universe. Secret agent Anton Zilwicki and Victor Cachat return in this classic tie-in series set in David Weber's Honorverse.TOIL AND TROUBLE IN THE CAULDRON OF GHOSTSThe Mesan Alignment: a centuries-old cabal that seeks to impose its vision of a society dominated by genetic rank onto the human race. Now the conspiracy stands exposed by spies Anton Zilwicki and Victor Cachatmdash;one an agent of Honor Harringtonrsquo;s Star Kingdom of Manticore, the other a Havenite operative. The outing of the Alignment has turned the galaxyrsquo;s political framework topsy-turvy. Old coalitions have disintegrated. New alliances have been born.For starters, the long and hard-fought war between the Republic of Haven and the Star Empire of Manticore is not only over, but these bitter enemies have formed a new pact. Their common foe: the Mesan Alignment itself. But more information is needed to bring the Alignment out of the shadows. Now, defying the odds and relying on genetic wizardry themselves for a disguise, Zilwicki and Cachat return to Mesamdash;only to discover that even they have underestimated the Alignmentrsquo;s ruthlessness and savagery. Soon they are on the run in Mesarsquo;s underworld, not only hunted by the Alignment but threatened by the exploding conflict on the planet between Mesarsquo;s overlords and the brutalized slaves and descendants of slaves who have suffered under their rule for so long. But if Zilwicki and Cachat succeed in rooting out the ancient conspiracy, a great evil may be finally removed from the galaxymdash;and on a long-oppressed planet, freedom may finally dawn.The Crown of Slaves Honorverse Series:Crown of SlavesTorch of FreedomCauldron of GhostsAbout the Crown of Slave Series:"Fans of Weber's Honor Harrington series hellip; will be delighted with this offshoot in which he and coauthor Flint develop several situations and characters from other stories. ...This outstanding effort transcends the label 'space opera' and truly is a novel of ideas.rdquo;mdash;Publishers Weekly About the AuthorWith over seven million copies of his books in print and seventeen titles on the New York Times bestseller list, David Weber is the science fiction publishing phenomenon of the new millennium.
