review 1: I read this after having read a few of the later stories of Honor Harrington. It reminded me of another story: "Mr. Midshipman Hornblower" so much that I smiled. C.S. Forrester is probably smiling from above at the notion that a David Weber created a young women character much in the mold of Forrester's iconic seaman who went to sea as a awkward youth, and who later rose to the highest levels of his beloved Navy, by putting duty, honor and loyalty above all else, no matter the personal and political costs.The life lessons are legion here and it's a shame that so few people today look at those qualities as attainable let alone desirable.
review 2: This is a collection of short stories from David Weber who is my favorite author. I had read two of these stories
... moreas they had previously appeared in other short story collections. It had been awhile however so I re-read them as well as reading all the other stories. Over all the entire collection was a great read as well as providing background information on one of his series. I would definitely recommend this collection to any Weber fan or anyone just looking for a good Science Fiction/Fantasy read. less
