Specifically, she was a Manticoran crown princess and the heir to the throne of the empire Roland Green offers a hard-hitting account of what happened when Manticore and the People's Republic Worlds of Honor Haven went eyeball-to-eyeball over a strategically vital planet Linda Evans looks at life among the treecats, before Honor.

It's a party - and you're invited! By: David Weberand others. David Weber himself here contributes three never-before-published excursions into Honor's world, among them the story of how she Worlds of Honor discovered her own inner strength and courage; and a chapter in the history of the telepathic treecats, who form a bond with their chosen human that can only be severed by death. Stirling, two of today's top writers of military Worlds of Honor fiction, to join him in an exploration Worlds of Honor Honor Harrington's universe. The hottest military science-fiction series of all time continues. The hottest military science fiction series of all time continues. The mission: to boldly explore David Weber's Worlds of Honor to deliver all the action, courage, derring do, and pulse pounding excitement of space naval adventure with tales set in a world touched by the greatness of one epic heroine: Honor Harrington. The Star Kingdom's ally Erewhon is growing increasingly restive in the alliance because the new High Ridge regime ignores its needs. Add to that the longstanding problem of a slave labor planet controlled by hostile Mesans in Erewhon's stellar back yard, a problem which High Ridge also ignores. 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 Worlds of Honor assignment turns out to be more dangerous than anyone expected. Worlds of Honor was supposed to be a Worlds of Honor outpost, far from the blazing conflict between the Star Kingdom of Manticore and the People's Republic of Haven has actually been targeted by an unholy alliance between the slaveholders of Manpower. By: David Weber. As the slavemasters of Mesa plot against the Worlds of Honor Empire of Manticore and the newly liberated slave planet of Torch, Anton Zilwicki and the notorious Havenite secret agent Victor Cachat set off on a dangerous mission to uncover the truth concerning a wave of mysterious assassinations that have been launched against Manticore and Torch. Rear Admiral Michelle Henke was commanding one of the ships in a force led by Honor Harrington in an all-out Worlds of Honor battle. The odds were against the Star Kingdom forces, and they had to run. But Michelle's ship was crippled, and had to be destroyed to prevent superior Manticoran technology from falling into Havenite hands, and she and her surviving crew were taken prisoner. Sometimes things don't work out exactly as planned. The Mesan Alignment has a plan - one it's been working on for centuries. A plan Worlds of Honor remake the galaxy and genetically improve the human race - its way. Until recently things have gone pretty much as scheduled, but then the Alignment hit a minor bump in the road called the Star Empire of Manticore. So the Alignment engineered a war between the Solarian League, the biggest and Worlds of Honor formidable interstellar power in Worlds of Honor history. There are two sides to any Worlds of Honor Queen Elizabeth of Manticore's first cousin and Honor Harrington's best friend Michelle Henke has just handed the "invincible" Solarian League Navy the most Worlds of Honor, one-sided defeat in its entire almost thousand-year history in defense of the people of the Star Empire's Talbott Quadrant. But the League is the most powerful star nation in the history of humanity. Its navy is going to be Worlds of Honor — and this time with thousands of superdreadnoughts. The Mesan Alignment: a centuries-old cabal that seeks Worlds of Honor impose its vision of a society dominated by genetic rank onto the human race. Old coalitions have disintegrated. New alliances have been born. What price victory? The war with the Republic of Haven has resumed. Everyone knows Eighth Fleet is the Alliance's primary offensive command, which makes it the natural assignment for the woman the media calls "the Salamander. After the disastrous attack on the Manticoran home system by forces unknown, Worlds of Honor Royal Manticoran Navy stands on the brink of collapse. A shadowy enemy with the resources to hurl warships across hundreds of light years seeks to conquer the Star Kingdom for reasons unknown, while forces from within Manticore's own government seek to Worlds of Honor and weaken the Navy for reasons very much known: their own political gain. Stephanie Harrington had always expected to be a forest ranger on her homeworld of Meyerdahl until her parents relocated to the frontier planet of Sphinx in the far distant Star Kingdom of Manticore. It should have been the perfect new home - a virgin wilderness full of new species of every sort, just Worlds of Honor to be discovered. But Sphinx is a far more dangerous place than ultra-civilized Meyerdahl, and Stephanie's explorations come to a sudden halt when her parents lay down the law: no trips into the bush without adult supervision! The Star Kingdom of Manticore and the Republic of Haven have been enemies for Honor Harrington's entire life, and she has paid a price for the victories she's achieved in that conflict. And now the unstoppable juggernaut of the mighty Solarian League is on a collision course with Manticore. The millions who have already died may have been only a foretaste of the billions of casualties just over the horizon, and Honor sees it coming. Growing up, Travis Uriah Long yearned for order and discipline in his life 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 possibly on the edge of budgetary extinction. Lieutenant Travis Long of the Royal Manticoran Navy is the sort of person who Worlds of Honor an orderly universe. One where people follow the rules. Unfortunately he lives in the real universe. The good news is that Travis is one of those rare people who may like rules but has a talent for thinking outside them when everything starts coming apart. That talent has stood him - and the Star Kingdom - in good stead in the past, and it's one reason he's now a "mustang" - an ex-enlisted man who's been given a commission. Lady Dame Honor Harrington - starship captain, admiral, Steadholder, and Duchess - has spent decades defending the Star Kingdom of Manticore against all comers. Along the way, she has become the legend known as "the Salamander" from her habit of always being where the fire is hottest But it's a big universe, and Honor's actions affect a lot of lives, not all of them human. And their actions affect her - a lesson "Ms. Midshipwoman Harrington" learns years before rising to command rank, when a desperate battle against "pirates" who aren't quite what they seem begins her brilliant career.

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.

Zher AnfangVon Kindle-KundeNach einem zhen Anfang und extrem gewhnungsbedrftigem Stil endet das Buch auf fast gewohntem Niveau. Deswegen leider nur zwei Sterne.3 von 3 Kunden fanden die folgende Rezension hilfreich. Eine Fortsetzung vor einer Fortsetzung - trotzdem spannendVon ScimitarFr David Weber noch ausstehend ist die Frage, ob es ihm denn auch gelingen wird, eine seiner Serien zu einem logischen und befriedigenden Ende zu fhren oder ob er in der ewigen Fortsetzung versinkt. Auch wenn dieser Band als Fortsetzung des "Crown of Slaves"-Spin Offs verkauft wird reiht er sich doch nahtlos in die Handlung ein. Das erspart dem Leser auch die stndigen Wechsel des Handlungsortes wie bei der "Nimue Alban"-Serie und auch die Namen kann man sich merken.Zur Handlung (Spoilerfrei): Zumindest auf der Seite von Manticore ist mittlerweile die Existenz des "Alignments" von Mesa bekannt, dazu aber recht wenig Details.

  • Honorverse Jump: WIP V0.1 Permission to Come Aboard Granted, Jumper
    Honorverse Jump: WIP V0.1 Permission to come aboard granted, Jumper. You’ve just entered the world of the Honorverse, a naval space opera vast in scope and detail. As part of your duties in this world, you’ll undoubtedly encounter massive space battles, new cultures and technologies, and more expositionary meetings than a treecat can shake a celery stick at. Interstellar tension is rising around the galaxy, as star nations jockey for position and conspiracies lasting T-millennia prepare to come out into the light, leading to one thing above all else; space naval combat that seems strangely reminiscent of the wet-navy combat of Old Earth’s Napoleonic wars. But despite the scale of conflict, sometimes galactic history pivots on a single brave person and their sense of what’s right. Normally, that person seems to be one Honor Harrington, whose duty (and honor) lead her to change the galaxy. But with you here, who knows? Welcome, Jumper, to the Honorverse. Given your duties here, the Space Lords have determined that you are to be equipped as you are accustomed. Take these to prepare yourself. +1000 CP Now, Jumper, let’s be about it. Place and Time: Begin by determining your starting location and era. The proper astrocartography and positioning is vital to ensuring success, after all; unfortunately, you must roll 1d8 to determine the star system and time in which you arrive, or pay 50 CP to choose for yourself. 1: Basilisk, 1900 PD: Where it all started. One Commander Honor Harrington, new captain of the CL HMS Fearless, has just been posted to distant Basilisk Station to picket the system and perform customs inspections.
