Lady Dame Honor Harrington isn't alone. Her life touches
others—and their lives touch hers—directly, or indirectly,
whether as a naval officer, steadholder, or duchess.
In this collection, Jane Lindskold gives us the story of a
prince on the brink of maturity and an extraordinary young
Grayson woman named Judith—a victim of Masadan brutality,
who confronts insurmountable odds in a desperate effort to
lead her sisters to freedom— or—death among the stars.
Timothy Zahn weighs in with a story of the heavy cruiser
HMS Fearless; a brilliant young tactical officer on
temporarily detached duty; Solarian con men; secret
weapons that aren't quite what they seem to be; naval
spies, spooks, and dirty tricks; courage and honor; and a
surprising glimpse into one of Admiral Sonja Hemphill's
most crucial technological innovations.
John Ringo offers his unique blend of nonstop action and
deliciously skewed humor in two offerings. The Peep planet
of Prague and its brutally repressive StateSec regime will
never be the same again after the unscheduled, unofficial,
and thoroughly catastrophic visit by a pair of Manticoran
Marines with a most peculiar taste in their holiday
destinations. And then there's the question of what an
explosively expanding navy does with the personnel who
can't quite cut the mustard.
Eric Flint tells us the story of an idealistic young
StateSec officer who finds himself in the right place at
the right time following the fall of Oscar Saint-Just.
Young Victor Cachat could influence the loyalty of an
entire sector ... if he's only lucky enough to manage to
stay alive long enough to try.
And finally, David Weber gives us the tale of the first
Grayson midshipwoman on her "snotty cruise" at a time when
internal tensions threaten the entire future of the
Manticoran Alliance and people are about to rediscover the
Fact that the Peeps are far from the only predators hiding
in the stars.
