Honor Harrington Mod Discussion

[Baron Munchausen]

Heh...

I just read those two free books in the Last few days. Interesting technical universe. I like it. It's much more realistic then Treknology, but it's different from the usual 'gritty' war story universe like Starship Troopers.

Honor Harrington herself is Horatio Hornblower recast (note the initials!) if the books hold true to the form of the first two through the entire series. She keeps getting promotions to 'unusual responsibility' for her age and sets to work uncovering the secret machinations of the enemy or enemies. Once she's figured things out, the enemy has to play his hand and it's broadside after broadside until both sides are reduced to shreds, with Honor Harrington winning by a smidge. She's gonna need a new ship for every novel. She always finds a reason to use her superior strength (from growing up on a high gravity world) to smack some men around, too.
