Beginning of an incredible series

The world building was thorough and the story engaging-so much so that I have purchased every novel in this series! The characters develop throughout the story and the following books. I’ve always been a fan of science fiction since the 1950’s and admire characters of strength and struggle. Plus the stories themselves make it hard to put the books down!

the best

This is by far my favorite of the Liaden novels, and a good possible place to start if you are looking for an entry point into the universe.

It's got everything!

Space travel, energy weapons,, knife fighting, mental paranormal abilities, kids, handsome Captain, strong heroine, efficient men of business, and Romance! Who could ask for anything more? And written so long ago. How did I miss these prolific authors in all the years I have been reading science fiction. Love it. Andy Caploe does a good job with pacing, voices, and the like. Just not the very best I've heard.

Shan and Pricilla *sigh*

I loved Priscilla's story and how she grew and overcame. Norbears <3 <3 <3 I've always wanted one! For those that love books that embrace female power, here is your star ship ride! Tree and Dragon!! I did feel that the narrator missed the cadence of Shan's voice. Though thorough and precise in his enunciation, the sparkle and edge was missing in the deliverance, especially when there was dialogue between Shan and Priscilla. This was slight and really those of us that have loved these books for over several decades are going to be overly critical. I overall LOVED that I can have this story on my iPod and be able to listen to it over and over. Long live Korval!

I knew I loved the story already though...

What made the experience of listening to Conflict of Honors the most enjoyable?

That I could listen to something I've read so many times the book is falling apart.

What did you like best about this story?

I like how this book ties in with all the rest so well, The different cultures in the worlds involved in the liaden series are not strangers to prejudice, cultural misunderstandings, religious zealots, vengence, and drug problems. Despite all that this is more of a romantic story, and not a negative one at all.

What three words best describe Andy Caploe’s voice?

Flat. (I wasn't a fan of his voice.)

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

"Or a lesson in not angering dragons."

Any additional comments?

The entire series is well worth your time. Start with agent of change.
