Title: Not everything I'd hoped for
Review: I picked up this fourth Honor Harrington book first, knowing it is a series, but not knowing its order. It was recommended to me by people who said if I like Bujold's Captain Cordelia Naismith and her son Miles, then I'd like Honor. Harrington is more like Pvt/Sgt/Capt/Major Sharpe by Bernard Cornwell than Bujold's characters. Harrington and Sharpe are the perfect soldiers. Harrington has a tough time of it, certainly, but very little humanity seeps through.
