Book Review: Military Space Opera

The Honor of the Queen

by David Weber

 

     I thoroughly enjoyed this work, the sequel to On Basilisk Station.  Honor and a fleet with freighters are on a diplomatic mission to solidify ties with Yeltsin’s star.  She represents Queen Elizabeth of Manticore to the leaders of a Patriarchal society stuck in sexist paradigms.  Their zealot neighbors are frothing at the mouth using Havenite technology to help start a war and bring on the END DAYS.  Excellently written with great character development all around.  I give it five stars.
