On the other hand, even using all your cited, authoritative sources doesn't save Shards of Honor from a purely Science Fiction/War Stories classification, but I'm guessing you know that already. Of course, I don't usually have a problem with hypocrisy per se, because we're all hypocrites - at least to some degree.
I know Shards of Honor is not a true love story. But I figured that given that a number of us don't really care for the true romance type book that I'd try to fond one that had some sort of love in it that might be overall OK with those that don't like romance.
