Torch Of Freedom - David Weber & Eric Flin t- Review
I've just finished reading the latest book in the Honorverse - Torch Of Freedom.
This is another Zilwicki/Cachat/Torch story. It does cover interesting pieces of the Manpower/Mesan Alignment events, and of course, has a nice battle at the end, with technology surprises on both sides. It wouldn't be an Honorverse book otherwise.
There were some overly verbose sections, as usual, too.
One tiny side story I liked was about Brice and the gypsy clan. I would be surprised if they didn't appear again in other books. The revelations about the alignment gained at the end of story (not to mention the tech) should have large consequences for the whole series.
Definitely recommended for fans of the series.
PS: I've added the Amazon link. It is a US$17 hardcover. I feel compelled to mention that you can get it as an e-book at Webscriptions for just US$6 or potentially even better, as one of their monthly bundles (I say potentially because the bundle only makes sense if you want the other books. This one was good IMHO).
