"Honor Harrington rules, maybe the most interesting military speculative fiction of the last quarter century."
Not to argue, but maybe quibble a little, Queen Adrienne rules, and Honor makes sure it stays that way! ;) Excellent stories, indeed. I think David Weber went a little better than C.S. Forester. John Ringo does some pretty good stuff, too. I even like Eric Flint, lib that he is.

Oops, my bad. Let me restate it: Honor Harrington kicks some serious tail. I read less and less SF as time goes by but Weber truly combines much of what there is to like about Forester and Heinlein; duty, honor, country great understanding of military tactics (and how politics can drive them) and characters with character.
