Before she saved the galaxy, she was "Ms. Midshipwoman Harrington"—
New York Times bestselling author David Weber reveals how Honor
Harrington's long and brilliant career began with an encounter with
"pirates" who turned out to be much more than they seemed....
Another day, another planet at war. But in David Drake's
"Choosing Sides," Lieutenant Huber stepped off the starship right into an
ambush. The attackers didn't survive, but neither did far too many of
Huber's troops—and Slammers aren't supposed to get caught in
ambushes. Now, to redeem himself, Huber is being sent on a special mission
that may be his last. But even so, the enemy will learn the cost of
killing even a single one of Colonel Hammer's Slammers. . . .
If the enemy thought General Belisarius was tough, wait until they meet
the wife of one of his soldiers in Eric Flint's "Island." She was
wed just before her husband left with Belisarius to fight an evil from
beyond time. Now her husband is wounded, and she is going to travel a
thousand miles to reach his side—and few who get in her way will live to
regret it. ...
