Add a CommentThe short story "Let's Dance" is not to be missed. For Honor Harrington fans it is a treasure. This book contains three Honorverse stories and a separate lengthy description of weapons and armor. In Let's Dance he was not as heavy handed on the boring military navy capabilities, giving me a closer relationship and empathy with the people aspects. Good stuff, Weber.
