Honor Among Enemies by David Weber
4.0
There are good and bad aspects of this book. I'll start with the bad and end with the good.
1. Honestly, was anyone surprised with Tschu died? I sure wasn't.
2. Honor is special in way too many ways. She is too bloody perfect. Now it looks like that she might have two tree cats. Not only is she an outstanding officer, but gosh, even the treecats treat her special. :bangs head:
3. Actually No 2. all over again, with the addition of the fact that when Tschu dies is death has no emotional revelance, not even in terms of getting the reader to feel for Samantha. Instead, it seems to be used to show us how great Honor is, yet again.
Now for the good:
1. Many of the main supporting points and characters. I found myself more concerned with them than with Honor. In fact, I couldn't have cared less about Honor, but the supporting characters were interesting.
2. Presenting two different sides of a conflict.
3. Dealing with issues that occur in war that few other writers truly touch upon in depth.
4. Honor's loophole.
5. A male asking for maternity leave.
