If blood be the price of admiralty, Lord God, we ha' paid in full!

Today outdoor work was canceled on account of rain. I pulled The Honor of the Queen from a box in lieu of doing anything useful. I chewed through the Honor Harrington novels in late high school / early college; hopefully my taste in infodumps has since improved. (It's also tempting to make notes about the progression of feminism in the nearly two decades since the novel was published, as well as gratuitous realpolitik with respect to the Grayson and Masadan situations.) Rereading suggests that in any Mercedes Lackey / David Weber crossover, Honor could go toe-to-toe for the Special Snowflake With Most Angst prize with any Lackey protagonist.
