Honorverse

The Honorverse refers to the military science fiction book series and its two sub-series and anthologies created by David Weber and published by Baen Books centered on the space navy career of the protagonist. Now numbering over twenty novels and anthology collections and keyed to epoch events defined in the life and times of the mainline protagonist, most of the works cover events between 4000–4022 AD with local dating offset from the start of a great diaspora to the stars from our sun ("Sol") with a beginning dated in 2102 AD. Thus, the main series novels are set primarily in a timeline beginning 40 years after Honor Harrington's October 1, 3961 AD (1859 PD) birth; although she is also the protagonist in many of the short stories which are written to flesh out her earlier career in the anthologies, much like the fiction about Horatio Hornblower.

Plot

Modeled on Nelson (like Hornblower), Harrington was supposed to die like the great Admiral at the peak of her career in the great final battle, which in honorverse translates to the Battle of Manticore in 1920 PD (4020 AD) when the star empire of Haven attacks with hundreds of star ships in an desperate bid to conquer the home system of Manticore, in a devastating attack akin to a frontal assault. But collaborating author Eric Flint intervened asking for the invention of a mutual enemy for both the Star Kingdom of Manticore and the Republic of Haven to oppose in a spy and counterspy spin-off sub-series the two contractually agreed to co-write, just as they have contracts to write in Flint's 1632 universe. This "rethink" and redesign begat the Crown of Slaves novel, first in the "Wages of Sin" sub-series based on a number of the short stories of the first four collections, and in which proxies for Manticore and Haven oppose the same hidden enemy, the genetic slavers and powers behind the government and corporations of the planet of Mesa; later revealed in Mission of Honor to be a secret cabal of about a dozen highly capable planets which are busily building a secret navy using advanced technologies at a secret planet and known to itself as the Mesan Alignment. The Mesan Alignment's navy has new technology and sneak attacks Manticore in 1920 PD during the twelfth mainline novel, Mission of Honor. The Mesan's have a 600-year-old secret program to reinstitute purposeful genetic engineering of humans and break up the Solarian League, while taking down all opponents opposing such genetic engineering, which puts Haven, Manticore, and various associates of the planet Beowulf squarely in the crosshairs of the Mesan Alignment. The four sub-series books and last two mainline Honorverse novels detail the rising extent of this threat.

In a second spin off that expands the Honorverse beyond the direct career of Honor Harrington, Weber also shifted events he had planned for Harrington's children about twenty years in Shadow of Saganami—this book overlaps some mainline novel narrative detailing opening up a new "wormhole bridge" and terminus pair to a far quadrant of the galaxy near the Lynx star system in the Talbott Cluster of the Verge—one where the hardscrabble, generally weak and impoverished Verge planets felt threatened by the corrupt bureaucracy of the Solarian League and came together to petition the Queen and Parliament of Manticore for membership in the star kingdom. The Star Kingdom had just undergone a precedent setting expansion adding a fifth inhabited planet to incorporate the liberated world of Trevor's Star, a wormhole terminus deep inside the Haven Republic. This voluntary and self-requested annexation suggested a method to bring in new planets under the protection of the powerful Manticoran navy to the Verge systems. The crown acquiesced to making the effort, and at the end of the process (opposed by Mesa on several levels), became the Star Empire of Manticore. This sub-series began during War of Honor with a focus on some young officers who had been her students at Saganami Island as well as some characters who had served under her in previous works, and several others who are new anchor characters of mid-level ranking. This sub-series also shifted some of the series "bad guy" focus not only across and around the great sphere of the Solarian space but also put the two star nations at odds, thanks to the string pulling and manipulation by the shadowy genetic slavers of the Mesa star system.

As the two sub-series progress, albeit with other characters, each is expected by Weber to carry the detailed storyline events particular to their astrographical region relative to the huge Solarian League. The thirteenth mainline novel, A Rising Thunder, ties together events in both sub-series and synchronizes the timeline of each sub-series with Honor Harrington's mainline novels. This book confirms the Solarian League is officially now the new cat's paw (immediate) enemy effectively at war with the Star Kingdom, as it has been gamed into error after error by the operatives of the evil Mesan Alignment.

Consequently, with the series reset, for a time the new series books had made only passing references to Harrington as the author reset the series backstory and set up the future for a new succession of threat: the power behind the threatening power of the huge thousands of stars of the Solarian League.

Publication

Many of Weber's books are available at the Baen Free Library; chapters of some texts are otherwise available online. The first-edition hardcover releases of War of Honor, At All Costs, Torch of Freedom, and Mission of Honor contained a CD with copies of Weber's books at the time, and labeled for free redistribution.

Depiction

The early books are modeled on and reminiscent of C. S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower series.

The books have made the The New York Times Best Seller list.

Between a handful of anthologies, the thirteen Honor-centered novels, and two subordinate sub-series starring different characters, the universe first explored in On Basilisk Station has a diasporal historical background for the backstory storyline, in which mankind over several thousand years migrated to systems beyond the solar system, first in slower-than-light starships, then by increasingly efficient and effective hyperspace drive propulsion systems. Early daughter colonies also spawned colonies, forming regional networks of related populations. With travel limited to slower than light speeds, any marginally inhabitable nearby planet was of interest, and Earth's scientists went through a period where they regularly genetically modified the human genome for survival positive adaptations to marginal environments, such as heavy gravity, thin atmosphere, thick atmospheres, or toxic environments (e.g. Grayson). Some corporate entities also began breeding for super soldiers and superior intellects, good looks, sexual prowess et al., or mixes of such traits, practices which lead to a horrific final war on Old Earth. Long established advanced daughter colonies like Beowulf mounted a variety of rescue missions and lead to a thousand year effort to clean up the Earth gene pool, and for a time the cultural center moved off the Earth as it took about 500 years for the planetary economy to recover its pre-eminence within its shell of highly populated highly developed planets. Located in the center of the spherical Solarian League, Old Chicago eventually re-emerged as the nominal League Capital.

By the Gregorian calendar currently in use, the Honorverse novels are dated after the basis year 2102 A.D.—the Epoch date of the Diaspora's beginning; the 11th–13th mainline novels and all four books in the two sub-series are set in 1919–1921 P.D. (4020–4022 A.D) when the series transitions from one antagonist to a different group of murkier and mysterious antagonists 'to be revealed later' but creating incidents now from stealth—about twenty years after the initial novel. This shadowy enemy was a secret cabal, known to itself as the Mesan Alliance which has been pursuing a 600-year-old plan to eventually overthrow the Solarian League and reinstate legal genetic engineering on humans.

The FTL hyperspace propulsion system in the stories were only developed about the same era, dating back around 600 years as well. This technology mix uses the ability to "sail" along a vast network of "gravity waves" on different successively higher hyperbands, each successively higher band giving a more efficient (and more correspondingly dangerous) speed multiplier; the higher bands significantly shortening transit times on a given gravity wave for a given base speed, which is limited by particle densities and radiation shielding as Newtonian speeds increase. Analogous to prevailing winds creating certain favored trade routes, the relatively static fixed gravity waves form favored travel paths, and a lack of grav waves, desert regions which must be plodded across by relatively slower means. These favorite routes and desert crossing points are trouble making:susceptible to illegitimate exploitation by pirates and commerce raiding warships, both interested in preying on the rich pickings of the interstellar merchant cargoships plying the spaceways which carry upwards of 2–7 million metric tonnes of cargo.

Within each hyperband, ships have a local speed limited by particle densities which at high relative speeds become cosmic radiation—the better physical shielding or better particle shield generator enables faster speeds within the band, on which base speed, the bands multiple has effect—giving shorter journey times. Merchant ships have immense size and thin walls with virtually no physical shielding, as well as cheaper relatively weak particle shield generators and hyper-generators. Commercial carriers, like sailing ships and freight trains of Old Earth, trade off journey time by increased size and volume carried, so as to keep shipping costs economical. Military vessels having no profit motive and already physically shielded, also carry better particle shield generators and can attain much faster interstellar voyage times both within a band, and because their better protections enable them to enter higher hyperbands with higher local particle counts.

The interaction of gravity effects also manifest in much rarer generally widely scattered wormholes by which hyperdrive equipped ships can travel virtually instantaneously between the wormhole's end points. In some systems, several of these wormholes are found to be co-located forming an irresistible trading nexus, perhaps because their ends have some mathematical affinity: they occur with entrances relatively close together in very small spatial volumes.

The greatest known aggregation of these co-located "Junctions" or Terminus Locii occur in the Manticore binary star system whose wormholes connect the wormhole junctions to six (later seven) other star systems giving the solar system an astrographic position to be coveted, and an immense revenue stream from transit tolls, manufacturing and trade, and a large carrying trade.

They were a mere three wormhole transits away from the Manticore Binary System, but it certainly didn’t feel that way. The Dionigi System was only ninety-six light years from Manticore, but it was connected to the Katharina System, over seven hundred and thirty light-years away, by the Dionigi-Katharina Hyper Bridge. And the Nolan-Katharina Bridge, in turn, was one of the longest ever surveyed, at nine hundred and fifteen light-years. Even allowing for the normal hyper-space leg between Manticore and Dionigi, he could be home in less than two weeks, instead of the eighty days or so it would have taken his warships to get there on a direct voyage.

— The first appearance of a new Wormhole nomenclature , "Hyper Bridges", in A Rising Thunder, chapter 1

The stories include numerous dependent and independent polities and several major star nations including two giant aggregations of many planets, Haven and the Solarian League; protagonist Honor Harrington is a citizen of the Star Kingdom of Manticore, which is during the first 20 or so works of the series, is the key rival and the main stellar protagonist against the star conquering (People's) Republic of Haven. The first books deal with a world of escalating tensions and military incidents whereas war breaks out in the third lasting until they make a formal peace in A Rising Thunder, the thirteenth mainline novel, after each suffers horrendous losses in the eleventh, At All Costs, during the Battle of Manticore when Haven makes an all out bid to conquer the Star Kingdom. In the first anthology Eric Flint and Weber wrote stories that birthed the first sub-series thereafter revealed in other shorts, in Crown of Slaves and Torch of Freedom, introducing, then revealing some further far more dangerous adversaries—the interstellar corporate gangsters of Mesa, who segued into the new much more dangerous and hidden secret adversaries of the shadowy Mesan Alliance consisting of corrupted Solarian Core worlds promoting the destruction of the old order—puppet masters pulling the strings of corrupted Solarian League bureaucrats and Admirals in both the sub-series as well as the main series. Ambitious, they plan the overthrow of the Solarian League, and the complete destruction of the Star Kingdom of Manticore, Haven, Beowulf and all its historic allies. This rather complicated reboot saves Honor Harrington from death in battle (the Battle of Manticore) as originally plotted by Weber, having closely modeled her on the iconic hero of the United Kingdom, Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson and explains the close timelines extant in the most recent three Honorverse novels and all four sub-series novels (each according to Weber in the foreword to Mission of Honor, corresponding to a astrographic region, the Manticore-Beowulf-Haven Sector, the Maya (Torch) Sector, and the Meyers (Talbott Quadrant) Sector).

The Manticore binary star system has three inhabited planets and a wormhole junction with more termini than any other known junction; the discovery of another terminus, and the exploration of the system beyond it, is a key component of the first novel of the Shadow of Saganami series connecting to a region, the Talbott Quadrant, of about twenty star nations which petition the kingdom for membership, giving birth to the Star Empire of Manticore in 4021 A.D.. That birth attracts the animus of certain vested interests inside the vast superpower known as the Solarian League.

In the first works, the Star Kingdom's wealth and importance have elicited both envy and avarice among other star nations and groups, such as the Andermani Empire, the Republic of Haven, Mesa and its corporate powers, the Silesian Confederacy, and the Solarian League. Disruptive technological advances have been few in the Honorverse for most of the 500 years leading up to the series; as the series opens, that technological stagnation has led to a similar stagnation in both military strategy and tactics. During the course of the book series, both forms of stagnation (technological and military) are brought to a violent end by developments stemming from the Havenite/Manticoran Wars, which give both Haven and Manticore a massive technological advantage over the Solarian League by the time of the most recently published books of the series.

Spin-offs

The Honorverse is a tightly plotted highly organized invention, which was designed with a specific overarching storyline. Its storyline has shifted from the original plan to include new enemies, and did not result in the battle death of heroine Honor Harrington, as was planned originally for book twelve. The series' canon is maintained solely by its creator, who acts as editor in the few works in the universe by other collaborating authors.

Like some of the strategy employed by co-author Eric Flint in his 1632 series, the series recently (meaning the last two works in both sub-series and the last few of the mainline series) incorporated a broader viewpoint from more than one central character, many of whom, like in the 1632 series, appeared in other series works as supporting characters. Stories in the Worlds of Honor collections directly lead to events and character stars of the Wages of Sin (WoS) sub-series, whereas the Shadow of Saganami's star cast and some of the characters of the WoS derive directly in mainline novels. Both contain purposely invented new protagonist characters as well. Weber deliberately has synchronized events in the mainline series with the tellings of local knowledge and vice versa in both sub-series. In other words, the broad front on which he is now telling the overall story is geographically distinct, but synchronized in his timeline: events in one quadrant will impact life and events in the related narratives centered on other main characters.

Short fiction in the series serve as deep backstory, or like the shorts centered directly on Honor Harrington, expose episodes of her earlier career much as the way C.S. Forester revealed the not-yet-in-command life of the young Horatio Hornblower. Some of the more important of these tales reveal a greater knowledge of Spinx's native species, letting the reader in on knowledge not even known to the honorverse occupants. Among these tales are the revealed history of how Treecats and humans first bonded, how the Treecats protected and bonded with the Royal family, and other treecat tales of greater or lesser importance, such as how the treecat society decided to migrate to the stars. Other shorts expose points of view and life's problems from places around the larger universe. Some offer insights to life behind enemy lines in the view of its citizens and their experience, or that of a protagonist in the verge, or the Solarian League.

5. In Fire Forged (February 2011) ISBN 978-1439134146

Wages of Sin series

1. Crown of Slaves (September 2003) ISBN 0-7434-7148-2 with Eric Flint—a departure type work, the setting is outside Manticore space for these stories based on the Zilwicki family, who are mentioned in earlier works. The work enabled Weber to not kill Honor off in the Battle of Manticore, as Flint asked for some enemy that was inimical to both Haven and Manticore. This turned out to be the shadow government of Mesa, with its front corporations such as Manpower Incorporated, and its alliance of genetically improved supermen that were the powers behind the Mesan Alliance, revealed to both Haven and Manticore to have been plotting for 600 years to overthrow the Solarian League: that is, from the founding of Mesa.
2. Torch of Freedom (November 2009) ISBN 1-4391-3305-0 with Eric Flint—sequel to the above, side series continues the story of Queen Berry and her family and friends. A key part of the work is the desperate clandestine mission to prove Mesa's culpability in the attempt to assassinate Honor Harrington, the successful assassination of the Manticorian Ambassador to Earth, the mass murder from the botched assassination of Queen Berry of Torch by the inimitable pairing of secret agents Zilwicki and Cachet of Manticore and Haven respectively. This jaunt results in the discovery of the Mesan Alignment and a revelation of part of its nature to the intelligence communities of Haven and Manticore.
3. As of January 2012 a third book is in the process of being written.

Saganami Island series

1. The Shadow of Saganami (October 2004) ISBN 0-7434-8852-0—The novel is primarily set in the remote Talbott Cluster, connected to Manticore via a newly discovered junction terminus, and includes characters already introduced in other works, such as Helen Zilwicki and Abigail Hearns, as well as brief appearances by many others.
2. Storm from the Shadows (March 2009) ISBN 978-1416591474—The novel continues the events in the Talbott Cluster (now Quadrant), and centers around Honor Harrington's best friend Admiral Michelle Henke and characters from the original book of the series. The events of the book include the results of Talbott government's signing its constitution and becoming part of the Star Empire of Manticore. The shadow conflict between Mesa and Manticore heats up as more Mesa-orchestrated incidents accrue to bring about war between Manticore and Solarian League.
