Story
Growing up, Travis Uriah Long yearned for order and discipline in his life...he two things his neglectful mother couldn’t or wouldn’t provide. So when Travis enlisted in the Royal Manticoran Navy, he thought he’d finally found the structure he’d always wanted so desperately. But life in the RMN isn’t exactly what he expected. Boot camp is rough and frustrating; his first ship assignment lax and disorderly; and with the Star Kingdom of Manticore still recovering from a devastating plague, the Navy is possibly on the edge of budgetary extinction.

Story
Stephanie Harrington had always expected to be a forest ranger on her homeworld of Meyerdahl until her parents relocated to the frontier planet of Sphinx in the far distant Star Kingdom of Manticore. It should have been the perfect new home - a virgin wilderness full of new species of every sort, just waiting to be discovered. But Sphinx is a far more dangerous place than ultra-civilized Meyerdahl, and Stephanie's explorations come to a sudden halt when her parents lay down the law: no trips into the bush without adult supervision!

Imperial Intelligence couldn't find them, the Imperial Fleet couldn't catch them, and local defenses couldn't stop them. It seemed the planet-wrecking pirates were invincible. But they made a big mistake when they raided ex-commando leader Alicia DeVries' quiet home/work, tortured and murdered her family, and then left her for dead. Alicia decided to turn "pirate" herself, and stole a cutting-edge AI ship from the empire to start her vendetta. Her fellow veterans think she's gone crazy, the Imperial Fleet has shoot-on-sight orders. And, of course, the pirates want her dead, too.

Until, that is the discussion of his star student Elzbietá Abramowski's dissertation on Operation Oz, the Pacific Allies' invasion of Vladivostok, was brutally interrupted. The psychotic episode that turned his entire world upside down struck with absolutely no warning, and it was more terrifying than anything he should have been able to imagine.

A look into Harrington's world
This is a collection of short stories in the World of Honor series. The first story
"Ruthless" by Lindskold is a sequel to "Promised Land". In the "Promised Land" Lt Prince Michael Winton rescues a group of women who have escaped from Masada. He meets Judith as falls for her and keeps in touch. In this story Judith's child is kidnapped to try to stop the Manticore and Grayson alliance. The Prince is off to the recuse and for readers of the newer books in the Harrington series you will find the Prince proposed to Judith. This fills in the gap missing in that series.
"Act of War" by Timothy Zane is about a con artist working to scam the Peoples Republic. Honor pops up at the end of the story.
"Let's Dance" by David Weber is a story of Commander Honor Harrington as Captain of destroyer Hawkwing. She is Silesia fighting pirates, the local government, and rescuing genetic modified slaves. Fills in more on this subject and a bit more about Beowulf and her Mother's work in this area. It is also a good story.
"An Introduction to Modern starship Armor Design" by Andy Presky. Is the history of armor in space ships. Some of the information is in various Honor Series books but this puts it all together. I am sure some people are bored with the story but I find it most interesting maybe because I am a scientist.
I can not get enough of these book so can hardly wait for the next in the various series.

Honor Harrington Universe Book 15
Please understand me right!
If you wish to read every story in HH universe then go ahead, but otherwise you can skip this book completely and don't feel any consequences.
"RUTHLESS" by Jane Lindskold
A sequel to her previous short story ("Promised Land" from The Service of the Sword), involving the Royal scion Michael Winton and Judith of Masada.Skip it, don't waste time.
"AN ACT OF WAR" by Timothy Zahn
A sequel to his previous short story ("With One Stone" from The Service of the Sword). It features "Charles", a slippery, conniving, elusive, less than totally honest dealer in black-market technology.Up to you to decide , but my rating is 2.5*
"LET'S DANCE" by David Weber
The longest story. It covers the Casimir raid prior to On Basilisk Station, and how then-Commander Honor Harrington broke up a slave depot on Casimir (an event mentioned in At All Costs).More or less good story, but completely marginal, without any nececary facts or information for HH Universe.My rating is 3.5*
"AN INTRODUCTION TO MODERN STARSHIP ARMOR DESIGN", by Mr. Hegel DiLutorio, CAPT, RMN, ret. HMSS Hephaestus, 1906 PD is an in depth design study regarding the history and design of laser heads and armor.
NEXT BOOK IS "Crown of Slaves"

Interesting but fading in comparison
What made the experience of listening to In Fire Forged the most enjoyable?
Well, I must say the hidden humour of stories makes this collection a good buy.
What was one of the most memorable moments of In Fire Forged?
I think the highlight of whole collection was epilogue of Timothy Zahns Act of War.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
Sadly, the narrator should study more pronounciation of german and slavic names in stories, as his pronounciation of them is atrocious. Rabenstrange is pronounced english as raben-strange (as stranger), instead of Rɑːbenʃtrage with hard g pronounce.
Sadly this is not only honorverse book which suffers thanks to narrator's language inexperience.
