I tried reading the 10th book of the Honorverse once, War of Honor, without any prior introduction to the series (I just got the urge to try some military sci-fi while at Barnes and Noble one day, and the book looked nice). I couldn't stand it, though, because the protagonist was the most blatant Mary Sue I had ever seen in a commercially published novel. Which is a shame, because I liked the prologue's writing style and it looks like the author is pretty good at political and technological world-building.
