Changer of Worlds — David Weber

WELCOME AGAIN TO THE MANY WORLDS OF HONOR

Lady Dame Honor Harrington--starship captain, admiral, Steadholder, and Duchess--has spent decades defending the Star Kingdom of Manticore. But it's a big universe, and Honor's actions affect a lot of lives, not all of them human. And their actions affect her--a lesson the young "Ms. Midshipwoman Harrington" learns when a desperate battle against "pirates" who aren't quite what they seem begins her brilliant career.

Closer to home, in "Changer of Worlds," a secret that the alien treecats have kept from their human friends is about to come out . . . and completely change the relationship between the two species forever.

Meanwhile, in Eric Flint's "From the Highlands," the People's Republic of Haven attempts a political assassination on Earth, and Anton Zilwicki--husband of one of the Star Kingdom's most revered military martyrs, and father of a young woman who is clearly a chip off the old block--steps in . . . and settles some old scores along the way.

And finally, Esther McQueen and Oscar Saint-Jun square off for their final confrontation in Noveau Paris in "Nightfall."
