A review by jmoses
A Call to Duty by David Weber, Timothy Zahn
4.0
This was good. It's cool to see some "real" events from the very early post-plague days of the kingdom. The constant budgetary constraints and scenes (ship only carries 3 missles! 3! WHAT) were especially jarring, but did a good job of driving home that this isn't Honor's kingdom.
Story and characters were good, and what I expected from two (3) such quality writers. If you like the Honorverse already, definitely pick this up. If you're on the fence, it's not a bad place to start, although I feel like the knowledge of "present day" Manticore added to my enjoyment of this.
