Book chronological order incorrect.

edit

Chronological order by internal published incidents indicate an error in listed order.

"At all Costs" and "Torch of Freedom" share sceans and indicating a clearly semi-concurent timeline at least for parts I can clearly indentifie as listed below.

1) A copy paste scene crossing the two 'Chapter Fifty-five' "At All Costs" that falls as 'Chapter Thirty-two' "Torch of Freedom" A Meeting of 'Honor Harrington', 'Anton Zilwicki', and 'Victor Cachat' aboard HMS Imperator while working up 'Operation Sanskrit' to discuss the attempted association of Queen Berry and Princess Ruth. 2) 'The Battle of Manticore' occuring in last chapters of "At All Costs" is referenced in 'Chapter Thirty-nine' of "Torch of Freedom" as occuring 'one week' prior to start of chapter. 2601:987:280:F160:584B:D91E:5617:54E4 (talk) 19:17, 22 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

I concur that the timeline at least needs a note as per Crown of Slaves re: War of Honor. By chapter 9 in Torch of Freedom (< 1/4 of the way through), references are made by the Dettweilers to the attempted assassination of Honor on her flag bridge, by Bardasano to the failed Monica ops, and to other events occurring in AAC and SoS. Insert should probably be made at around the same time as Kare arrives to conduct the wormhole survey... 142.118.123.150 (talk) 22:10, 28 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Salamander

edit

It seems odd that this article covers Honor Harrington fairly thoroughly, but doesn't mention her in-universe nickname "The Salamander"... AnonMoos (talk) 06:52, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

The number of escapees from Hell

edit

Hello, the number of 100 000 prisoners escaping from Hell (in the "Commodore Harrington" section) is incorrect. Or at least missing a context.

The 100 000 prisoners were the remaining ones who escaped on the ships captured during the Battle of Cerberus, but that is not the total number of escapees. Prior to that they managed to capture several transports (Longstops, if I remember correctly) and transported something like 350 000 people on those ships, commanded by Cynthia Gonsalves.

The books mention several times that Honor freed basically half a million prisoners. 209.206.5.34 (talk) 13:31, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

That section is no longer in this article, so the point is moot. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:34, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Probable typo in _House of Steel_ notes

edit

Shouldn't "Rodger Winton" be "Roger Winton"? 174.240.64.67 (talk) 23:25, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

published column

edit

The Published column in the table needs to be completely rewritten with the year first and any other information after that. the way it is, you do not get a coherent chronology because april 1992 books come before january 1992 books. Make it make sense. 100.15.117.34 (talk) 23:05, 2 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

The only table in this articles is "Stories listed by internal chronology", which means everything is listed chronologically within the series itself rather than chronologically by when they were published. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:28, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
