Honor Harrington, a former officer of the Star Kingdom, has become the supreme fleet command and a seat on the highest military and political councils of the Grand Alliance. She knows the Mandarins and the Solarian League Navy are growing increasingly desperate as the truth of their technological inferiority sinks home, but she also knows the sheer size of the League and how its citizens will react if the Grand Alliance takes the war to the League. Honor supports a strategy that has been working, but the Mandarins have embraced a desperate new strategy that has led to atrocities such as the galaxy has not known in a thousand years. The League has violated its own Eridani Edict against mass civilian casualties and the Deneb Accords prohibition on war crimes, and they have finally killed too many of the people Honor Harrington loves. The Salamander is coming for the Solarian League, and Hell is coming in her wake. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 768 pages\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 02 October 2018\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Baen Books\u003cbr\u003e                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Solarian League's navy boasts thousands of superdreadnoughts, and its economy is truly immense, unknown even to its own government. For centuries, the League has been a beacon of human civilization, an ideal to which humanity aspires across the galaxy. However, the bureaucrats ruling today, known as the Mandarins, are not the founders of the League. Corrupt, venal, and accountable to no one, they have decided that the upstart Star Kingdom of Manticore must be destroyed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHonor Harrington has served the Star Kingdom for half a century, wearing its uniform with honor and dedication. Over the years, she has grown from a tactically brilliant but politically naive junior officer to supreme fleet command and a seat on the highest military and political councils of the Grand Alliance. Few people know war like Honor Harrington, who has lost countless men and women, friends, and family. Despite this, she has been a voice of caution, aware of the growing desperation of the Mandarins and the Solarian League Navy as their technological inferiority becomes more apparent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShe knows the League's sheer size and the potential reaction of its citizens if the Grand Alliance takes the war to the League, attacking its star systems, destroying its infrastructure, and killing its civilians. Today's victory, achieved at such a cost, can only guarantee a future war of revenge against a resurgent Solarian League and its navy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHonor understands that the Grand Alliance must find a victory that does not require incursions deep into Solarian space, leaving a legacy of endless hatred. She believes that the Alliance must strike a decisive blow against Manticore, ensuring its destruction without causing undue harm to innocent civilians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe future of the galaxy hangs in the balance, and Honor Harrington is determined to be the one who leads the way toward a brighter, more peaceful future. With her courage, skill, and unwavering commitment to justice, she is ready to face any challenge that comes her way, knowing that the fate of humanity rests on her shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 976g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 236 x 158 x 40 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781481483506                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Weber","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44096099418362,"sku":"9781481483506","price":17.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/848fed1d7d259c6fbda3bd4e27f97305.jpg?v=1629348649","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/uncompromising-honor","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
