How can you not read Honor Harrington and play Full Thrust or
Stargrunt2?????!!!!!?????
When I picked up the first book (On Basilisk Station) and saw the name
C. S. Forester on the dedication page, it became a must-have book. C. S.
Forester wrote the Hornblower series (another favorite of mine) set in
the age of Sail (which I love - playing Wooden Ships and Iron Men a
lot). Hornblower was also the personality model for the part of Kirk in
Star Trek.
The entire series has fantastic plots, starship combat, dirtside combat,
and GREAT & believable characters. Weber is the Tom Clancy of Military
Sci-Fi.
