wheatpuppy posted:My personal experience with the Harrington books was that the first one was a pretty enjoyable read. After that, each book got progressively more bloated, with an inverse correlation in quality. I still re-read the first 5 or so, but after that I just don't bother. Actual character development takes a far backseat to heavy-handed political commentary. They start off well, but about 6 or 7 books in the Author wants to gently caress his subject material a little too much (Honor) and his misogynistic streak starts showing. The way he had written the character up to that point didn't really allow for the "Falls to pieces because the one man she loves can never be hers!" nonsense that occurred. Turned me off the series entirely.
