INTRODUCING
HONOR HARRINGTON
This long-running (seventeen volumes and counting) military sf series, Honor Harrington,
by David Weber chronicles the adventures of Honor Harrington, an officer in the Royal Manticoran Space Navy,
in a far-future interstellar civilization that mostly parallels the society and politics of England and France during the early nineteenth century.
The Star Kingdom of Manticore, a parliamentary monarchy, is locked in ongoing hostilities with the
People's Republic of Haven, a socialist dictatorship. The starships in Weber's "Honorverse" travel via gravitic impellers
essentially force field generators that warp space in a wedge above and below a ship and drive it at faster-than-light speeds.
A side-effect of this form of FTL drive is that the impeller wedges create impenetrable barriers everywhere but two narrow
bands running along either side of the ship. This forces warships to cluster their missile batteries and energy weapons in
broadside configurations that lead to high-tech analogs of the Age of Sail battles fought by Lord Nelson and
C. S. Forrester's Horatio Hornblower.
At the beginning of the series (On Basilisk Station, first published in 1993), the two governments are locked in a cold war
punctuated by fierce skirmishes between small naval forces. Harrington, first introduced as a young, earnest commander
in her second posting commanding a major warship, earns the ire of her superiors with a feat of tactical brilliance in a training
simulation, and for her sins she and her ship are assigned a backwater posting far from any expected action.
As fate would have it, this puts her directly in the path of a deadly Havenite warship on a secret mission,
which she manages to destroy at great cost to her ship and crew. From this auspicious beginning, the series follows Harrington
on her meteoric rise to fame and fortune as war breaks out with the People’s Republic, and Honor is called upon time and
again to save Manticore from increasingly epic threats. Over the course of the series Harrington’s reputation
(and the accolades heaped upon her) grow accordingly; by book eleven she is an Admiral in two different navies, a
confidante of the Queen, a national hero and high-ranking noble on two different worlds and fabulously wealthy in the
bargain. Critics point to succeeding volumes in the series creaking under the weight of unnecessary exposition and excessive
detail about every technical and political facet of the story, but the popularity of the series remains undiminished.
According to Baen's website, who publishes the Harrington series, there are seventeen novels in the Honorverse.
Eleven novels cover Harrington herself with six providing stories set in the same time line, but featuring other characters.

rarely mentioned in the stories about Honor herself and their story is continued in The Shadow of Saganami which nominally is supposed
to be about midshipmen on their first tour of duty on a Royal Manticoran Navy vessel.
