Three good short stories and an article on technology

This anthology contained three stories and one technological article. I'm afraid the latter made my eyes glaze over. However, the three stories were strong enough that I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I am glad I had read The Service of the Sword first as there were two continuations of stories from that anthology.

"Ruthless" by Jane Lindskold continued the story of Michael Winton who is in line for the throne and Judith who escaped from Masada. This one was a page turner and kept me on the edge of my seat.

"An Act of War" by Timothy Zahn was another continuation. This wasn't my favorite of the stories, but I had a sick fascination to see where it was going and if a character was going to end up alive or dead.

"Let's Dance" by David Weber was a long story that featured Honor Harrington from early in her career. I liked seeing some more background for a fictional character I've grown to care about.

"An Introduction to Modern Starship Armor Design" just wasn't my cup of tea.

I would strongly recommend this book to fans of Honor Harrington, provided they had read The Service of the Sword first. For most others, the stories require too much background to truly enjoy them.

Worlds of Honor 5

A collection of stories and articles set in the Honor Harrington universe. Started out well with the first two stories, then fell flat with the rest of the book. 3.5 out of 5 simply due to Lindskold and Zahn.

“Ruthless” by Jane Lindskold
While speaking to a woman from Human Services outside her apartment, Judith Newland’s daughter disappears. The child is being used as leverage against Prince Michael Winston. Lindskold gives us a look at one of the more important refuges of Masada as well as advancing the relationship of Judith and Michael. The search for Ruth also introduces Alice Ramsbottom, an intriguing new character with great potential. 4.5 out of 5.

“An Act of War” by Timothy Zahn
Sequel to “With One Stone” from PROMISE OF THE SWORD. Charles Dozewah, aka Charles Navarre, is on the People’s Republic of Haven to arrange a sale of something that could help with the war against Manticore. Before he can complete the deal, Charles is arrested by State Security. As even when Charles is involved, everything isn’t as it seems. It was nice to see some of the back story that was happening when Honor Harrington first was revealed to be still alive. Charles is truly an extraordinary person. As most conmen and spies go, he’s definitely one of the best. 4 out of 5.

“Let’s Dance” by David Weber
Commander Honor Harrington is contacted by John Brown Matheson of the Ballroom while visiting planet side. The local Ballroom members believe Manpower has a hidden slave base in the Casimir system. Sadly, this was the weakest story in the bunch (I don’t include the technical piece as, frankly, I usually skip them). Set pre ON BASILISK STATION, I was so looking forward to early Honor, not to mention the involvement of the Ballroom. It was terribly slow, even during the action scenes. Definitely not a short story. I was vastly disappointed. 3 out of 5.

“An Introduction to Modern Starship Design” by Andy Presby.
As I said, I don’t read these. It isn’t my field and doesn’t interest me, so no rating.

Honor lives up to her name

Excellent stories in this collection, even the story about armor design was very interesting. Honor always seemed to be honoring (pun intended) her orders from Command, I could never see her getting into serious trouble with the Admiralty. Good story about her following her beliefs instead of her orders.

CRITICISM

Ok. I have read all of the criticism for this book. The one thing I will agree on is the objection to the inclusion of article on armour and armament at the end. I think it was useful to the overall series, but not helpful to the book. This should have been included in a separate book that was dedicated the background of the stories in the Honorverse, an anthology of short stories. That said, the article was well written. The other 3 stories were delightful. Overall the stories were all 5s, but the book got a 4. I really enjoyed the Honor story, because I have heard about in other stories I have read in this series. Please enjoy this book for what it is, and I think you hard science readers will especially enjoy this.

I got this because I am find of the Honorverse stories and 3 favorite authors contributed. There is a technical story which is not my thing but the rest were fantastic. Good way to try small bits from good authors
