Honor Harrington Movie Deal In Progress

[Minor Axis]

David Weber Announces Honor Harrington Movie Deal.

All I can say is HOT DAMN!! I'm on about the 7th book. This could be really good or really bad depending on how it's handled. The movie will be based on the first book in the series, On Basilisk Station.

Written in the spirit of Horatio Hornblower. If you like science fiction, you might like this. It's focus is mostly on a conflict between two star kingdoms with heavy emphasis on thrilling battles and technology based combat. I believe the entire first book is available to read online but I've not verifed it's 100% content:

Honor Stephanie Harrington is a fictional character invented in 1992 by writer David Weber as the heroine of the eponymous "Honorverse", a universe described in a series of best-selling military science fiction books set between 4002 and 4022 AD, in which mankind has spread through the galaxy for 1920 years since the first slow ships left Earth.

The protagonist Honor Harrington is an officer in the Royal Manticoran Navy (RMN), the space navy of the Star Kingdom of Manticore. Harrington bears a striking professional resemblance to both the real-life British naval officers Admiral Lord Nelson and Captain Thomas Cochrane, as well as the fictional character Horatio Hornblower,
