Title: People sitting around tables discussing politics
Review: "A Reader from Texas" already said everything I had planned to say. 600+ pages of people sitting around tables discussing politics. Only one full blown space battle and that was quickly over. Honor Harrington spends very little time "on camera". And while the overall plot of the series was perfectly poised to move on to fresh new story arcs at the end of "War of Honor" we seem to have taken a few steps backward.A certain amount of monotony is the price we pay for Mr. Webers finely crafted stories. And I have no doubt that his attention to the fine details is why Honor Harrington is such a well loved character. But this is without a doubt the most tedious Sci-Fi novel I have ever read. I kept hoping it was going to get better, but it just kept dragging on and on. I can only hope that in the next book Mr. Weber pulls a rabit out of his hat and throws us some surprises and new directions.
Is the review positive or negative?
