The Service of the Sword
The Service of the Sword, published in 2003, was the fourth anthology of stories set in the Honor Harrington universe or Honorverse. The stories in the anthologies serve to introduce characters, provide deeper more complete backstory and flesh out the universe, so claim the same canonical relevance as exposition in the main series. David Weber, author of the mainline Honor Harrington series, serves as editor for the anthologies, maintaining fidelity to the series canons.
The book contains the following stories:
; "Promised Land" by Jane Lindskold
; With One Stone by Timothy Zahn
; "A Ship Named Francis" by John Ringo and Victor Mitchell
; "Let's Go to Prague" by John Ringo
; Fanatic by Eric Flint
; The Service of the Sword by David Weber
