I'm chugging my way through the Honor Harrington series as well. I read a lot of them a few years ago, but was burnt-out by the time I reached Eric Flint's spin-offs. I have vague memories of Crown of Slaves... looking forward to reaching it.
(Really noticing the poor quality of the plots and prose this time round. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the HH books, but after a steady diet of Lois McMaster Bujold recently, the contrast is noticeable
Someone asked me what I was reading at the moment, and I tried describing the series to them... I settled on saying they're like Pringles. No nutritional value, but you just can't close the damn pack
