Product Description

Product Description

Rear Admiral Michelle Henke was commanding one of the ships in a force led by Honor Harrington in an all-out space 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. Much to her surprise, she was repatriated to Manticore, carrying a request for a summit conference between the leaders of the two sides which might end the war. But a condition of her return was that she gave her parole not to fight against the forces of the Republic of Haven until she had been officially exchanged for a Havenite prisoner of war, so she was given a command far away from the war’s battle lines. What she didn’t realize was that she would find herself on a collision course, not with a hostile government, but with the interstellar syndicate of criminals known as Manpower. And Manpower had its own plans for eliminating Manticore as a possible threat to its lucrative slave trade, deadly plans which remain hidden in the shadows.

 

Praise for the Prequel, The Shadow of Saganami:

“These hugely entertaining and clever adventures are the very epitome of space opera. . . . Weber . . . remind[s] the reader that a hero can be anyone who does his or her job with honor, commitment and skill.” —Publishers Weekly

 

“The Shadow of Saganami may be military science fiction great David Weber’s best tale in the Honorverse . . an action packed tale with a fully developed multiple cast. . . .” —The Midwest Book Review

4.0 out of 5 stars Not the best Honorverse book but it is a must read, April 17 2009
By logan holmberg - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There isn't much action in this book and it recaps allot of events from War of Honor and Shadow of Saganami, but from different perspectives. Weber admits that in the Authorial note at the begining of the book. Don't read it by the way as some of you might scream in rage as he gives some insight as to where the story might go and how it changed from the his original plot. I won't give it away but if some of you know your naval history you probably thought it was going to happen in the last book but Weber decided to change it. Thank GOD! IMO!
It is a definate must read though as this books is all about setting up the last books in the Honoerverse. Finally there is an end in sight but it might be devestating to all those charaters we love to achieve it. I would call this more a scifi-political novel than a space opera which means it isn't exactly Webers best. I take off 1 to 1-1/2 stars for its long a dreary expositions and the jumping between all the characters (I thought I was reading Wheel of Time for awhile there) but the end is a real cliffhanger that makes it worth it. I REALLY can't wait for the next book now.

Torch of Freedom- comes out in Nov. 09........ :( Not soon enough, but at least it is up for pre-order now.

1.0 out of 5 stars Shocked at the good reviews - ho hum drivel, April 13 2009
By J. Piccolo "juleskid" - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Being a fan of David Weber's series I was delighted to see this in the bookstore. However, as page 400 it is still driveling on about some mushy uninteresting political situation for whole cast of seemingly irrelevant characters. Unfortunately, it is neither intriguing, nor inspiring as his other novels were. Of course there is no action what so ever. Quite frankly I would have to recommend passing on this novel completely. It is shocking that someone would have the nerve to rate this above a 2 on the US site. Hopefully you can avoid my pitfall.
