Would anyone consider Giancola's tampering with Manticoran-Havenite diplomatic dispatches that ended up precipitating the end of the truce to be analogous with Bismarck's altering of the Ems dispatch? If so, should it be included in the article? -- Cohen the Bavarian 15:01, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
This book seems to introduce plot elements (genetic slavery, Mesa, Manpower) that are previously developed. However the Honorverse article suggests that these were introduced after the publication of this book. It might be worthwhile to expand the article to explain how this fits in with the slaves sub series. 99.225.180.228 ( talk) 04:57, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Piotrus ( talk · contribs). Here are some sources about War of Honor:
The review notes: "The complexity of the latest and longest but not the most action-packed Honor Harrington yarn indicates that Weber is developing the characterizations and setting the political and strategic framework for grander action than ever to come."
The review notes: "Series fans will enjoy the further exploit,; of favorite characters, while aficionados of military sf should appreciate the faithful attention to military detail in the battle scenes. A solid choice for sf collections, particularly for libraries that own previous series titles."
The review notes: "This extensive volume follows the continuing evolving adventures of the star kingdom of Manticore's greatest tactician (yes, of course it's science fiction, what did you expect here?). With the acknowledged flavor of C. S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower stories, this book provides an excellent read as it chronicles the interactions between the star kingdom, the former People's Republic of Haven and the Anderman Empire. While by no means short on the tactical machinations that Weber is famous for, this novel delves deeper into the politics of these entities. It provides an excellent canvas to show how people's motives and goals, which they feel are so clear and obvious, can be easily misinterpreted."
The review is listed here in the Internet Speculative Fiction Database.
