Beginnings - Worlds of Honor, Bk 6
Author: David Weber, Charles E. Gannon, Joelle Presby, Timothy Zahn

The sixth volume in the popular Worlds of Honor series anthologies, a collection of military science fiction tales set in the Honor Harrington universe, filled with action, courage, derring-do, and the pulse-pounding excitement of space naval adventure, set in a world touched by the greatness of one epic heroine: Honor Harrington. Includes... more » a new novella by David Weber featuring a young Manticoran Royal Navy commander who goes by the name Harrington. Short fiction in the series serves as deep backstory or, like the short stories centred directly on Honor Harrington, exposes episodes of her earlier career. Other short stories expose points of view and life problems from places around the larger universe. Some offer insights to life behind enemy lines in the view of its citizens and their experience, or that of a protagonist in the Verge, or in the Solarian League. Among these tales are the revealed history of how treecats and humans first bonded.
