Wait until August. The Baen Publishing webpage (www.baen.com) has the
seventh and next book in the series, _In Enemy Hands_, set for release
that month in a hard back edition for $22.00. The spoiler on the David Weber
Fan
Club Page (http://lyre.mit.edu/~deering/weber.html) reads:

The next Honor book has been scheduled for August 1997 and is currently titled
In Enemy Hands. This tracks with some of the spoiler hints about Honor being
trapped behind enemy lines and presumed lost. [Speculation alert: I'm going to
go out on a limb and say that Honor is going to be tapped to scout out the
Trevor's Star terminus as part of Admiral White Haven's plan to take it
(outlined in Honor Harrington 6: Honor Among Enemies) and get trapped due to
some mess up.]

I have to join in the recommendations for the recently released _In
Death
Ground_, however.  Does anyone out there still play Starfire?

I still enjoy playing starfire, but I still use the 1984/1985 rules set
that I originally learned the game with. I like the game for the same reasons
that I like Full Thrust, mainly ease of play.

I use to play Starfire but of late I just don't have the inclination. Too many
fiddly bits life SFB.

I've still got all my Starfire stuff. Don't play much due to the amount of
rules that it nows has. I like 'em simple! 8D And if it hasn't been said,
Other books by Dave you'll WANT to read are: The Honor Harrington series Path
of the Fury The Muniteers Moon series.
All great Sci-Fi stuff.
