Over three decades ago, David Weber introduced the world to Honor Harringtonand Science Ficion has never been the same. Now, journey back to the book that started it all.
INTRODUCING HONOR HARRINGTON
Having made him look a fool, she's been exiled to Basilisk Station in disgrace and set up for ruin by a superior who hates her.
Her demoralized crew blames her for their ships humilating posting to an out-of-the-way picket station.
The indigenous people of the systems only habiltable planet are smoking homicide-inducing hallucinogens.
Parliment isnt sure it wants to keep the place; the major local industry is smuggling; the mechant cartels want her head; the star-conquering, so-called Republic of Haven is Up To Something; and Honor Harrington has a single, over-age light cruiser with an armament that doesnt work to police the entire star system.
But the people out to get her have made one mistake. Theyve made her mad.
