Notes from Creator David Weber
There was some confusion — to not say, um, heated debate, readers and followers as readers and followers — concerning the appropriate pronunciation of “Manticoran.” The reality, alas, is a hyperlink that has been neglected. Error! An error occurred. Please attempt once more later. One thing went unsuitable… and it isn’t Audible’s fault. It is mine. Earlier than Audible recorded Honor Harrington’s first e-book, narrator Allyson Johnson and I not solely corresponded through e-mail, however really talked on the cellphone. She wished to be completely sure that she had accurately pronounced the title, the place, the nation with the celebs, and so forth, and I went to nice lengths to make it possible for all of her questions had been answered. And they also had been. Sadly, sooner or later on this course of, I replied to considered one of her e-mails by telling her that “Man-ti-core-ahn” is pronounced “Man- tik-er-ahn.” I am unable to say precisely how this occurred at this level, besides blushing to disclose that the unique e-mail was nonetheless intact, confirming to the world that it was certainly my fault. I can solely think about it a brief psychological glitch on my half and ask in your forgiveness. Nevertheless, if you need to blame somebody for the confusion, it needs to be me and never Audible, who did all the pieces potential to make it proper.
On this e-book, Honor Harrington’s character and historical past are additional developed and far of the background info coated in later books is introduced. The story flows easily and the studying is great. I am undecided why or if there’s some logic to particular accents chosen by the narrator, however it helps maintain the characters organized very properly. Extremely suggest watching extra On Basilisk Station…
