Honor Harrington on Basilisk Station
by David Weber




The good news is that this book is a great balance between light summer reading and thought-provoking literature. The action moves along at a quick pace, and author David Weber throws in plenty of political and strategic intrigue to make it interesting. The bad news is that this book is the first in a series of at least a dozen books. And I liked the book enough that I may find myself forced to follow the whole series. Drat.

I read through all of the books in that series in one stretch. I enjoyed them quite a bit, but I was so sick of them that I haven't read the last one or two in the series.

I do recommend the Miles Vorkosigan (sp?) books by Lois McMaster Bujold wholeheartedly (they're in a similar space opera/navy category, but they're more character heavy and interesting).
