I'm just about finished with OBS. I really like. Love Honor and and I like how she isn't afraid to cross the guys who are giving her a hard time. I can see I'm going to enjoy this series very much.

I can't wait to hear your impression of HotQ.

And glad we've got a another fan here!

How do I Find HotQ? Is it a separate book?

Yes, it is a separate book, and as luck would have it, it is in baen free library, so you don't even have to pay to read it.

Mind you, there are a score (well, 11) books more after HotQ +3 shadows side books +3 Spook duo side books, +3 YA Stephanie Harington prequels + Travis Long prequel +6 short story compilations + House of steel (which is a novelete and tech details on honorverse) and none of those are on the free library.

I still say that the "spin-off series," and the anthologies and compendium should be counted as part of the main line. That makes it 26 books long, but there are things that happen in the so called "main line" that partially spoil both the shadow and the torch books (especially now that the books are reconverging), and the world building for those 6 books happen in the anthologies.

How do I Find HotQ? Is it a separate book?
oops, sorry - so in the habit of using the abbreviated book titles here that I didn't think.

As others said, "HotQ" is the next book in the series: Honor of the Queen.


main series books:
1 - OBS, On Basilisk Station
2 - HotQ, Honor of the Queen
3 - SVW, Short Victorious War
4 - FoD, Field of Dishonor
5 - FIE, Flag in Exile
6 - HAE, Honor Among Enemies
7 - IEH, In Enemy Hands
8 - EOH, Echoes of Honor
9 - AoV, Ashes of Victory
10 - WoH, War of Honor
11 - AAC, At All Costs
12 - MoF, Mission of Honor
12 - ART, A Rising Thunder

Plus anthologies, spin off series, companion books...

[edited because I screwed up book 4's title :oops:]

If I'm counting correctly, there's at least 30 books total in the Honorverse, not including the two Manticore Ascendant books yet to be written, as well as the two upcoming Companions.

Also, David recently posted that there are at least two more books planned that include Honor as a major character, and 5 or so books besides those to finish out the series.

That makes roughly 40+ books overall, once they're all done. I'm assuming we'll probably see at least one more anthology as well.

Also, RFC's made noises about writing about the Grayson Civil War at some point, but I for one would be content if he held off on that until the main-line story arc is done. :lol:

Maxx, I think that is at most two more books. Not at least, though it would be nice if you were right.
