I think that's the next Weber on my list, if I ever get back to that series. That might be a good choice, given that it will double up for the military challenge. I was considering reading the Call to Duty spin-off instead, but that's pretty short in comparison..


Yes, that's part of what informed my choice. Also reading At All Costs this year (I'm trying to do the Honorverse in rough chronological order). So far so good! I have read short stories and a novel that have introduced me to most of the major characters doing it this way, so I'm already invested in their fates; otherwise, the two chapters that thus far have involved introducing them to their middy voyage would have been as dry as toast. But you can't read Weber as individual books; you've got to take it like a saga. I heard they were doing a movie but really, the Honorverse would be a better TV show.

Now that I think about it, I think it would make a kickass TV show.
