Is anyone besides myself loving this series by David Weber? Great military action and fantastic story telling.

there have been rumors that it was going to be made into a movie but was squashed. I believe it would do great as the major characters have “prolong” which keeps them mostly looking 16 or so. Would attract younger crowd to the movie.

They're books, I think.

Yes, I have the entire series as e-books. Love it! A very good writer with a military background, David Weber does a great job.
I think the tree cats are my favorite part though.

Unless something new has come out in the last year or so, I believe I have read the entire series including the spin-offs.
David Weber seems to do a really good job combining British and American Naval terminology in a way that seems to hold together pretty well.

For those who have not encountered the series, I believe it is pretty much Horatia Hornblower and the age of fighting sail in space with yet another take on Faster than Light technology.

Although Treecats are kinda cool, I personally would not like the idea of having one constantly sitting on my shoulder....

If this was a real video series, it would get interesting though a lot of the smaller details might get lost. I believe I have seen a couple short you-tube videos that had ships from the Honorverse.

I am a great fan of Napoleonic era sea stories which brought me to this series. The best for me is Dewey Lambin’s series.

this has nothing to do with flight sims but I think these books would interest any sim fan.

I've been a fan of David Weber ever since I encountered his fantastic "Honorverse" series. I have every book published thus far in hard cover edition. I am anxiously awaiting the next volume(s) in this sprawling saga! :applause:
