Echoes of Honor by David Weber
3.0
Maybe 3.5? This book was frustrating to me because only about a quarter of the book was spent on Honor or people in her company. The other three quarters was spent on other characters, supporting or peripheral, some carried through the series, some never to be seen again.
All told, this book does more to advance the story arc of the series (the war) rather than of Honor. As a result, there was too much time spent on technical descriptions, politics and political descriptions, and characters that I just didn't care that much about. At times it even felt like filler, inserted to bulk up the book. When the story was on Honor, it was great, but I skimmed a lot in this one - probably my least favorite in the series so far. Still, I'm looking forward to the conclusion.
