"Enemies Without Honor"

I think would make a fantastic title.

1- The Mandarins lack any claim to having honor by our understanding of the term.
2- The League and the MAlign have no one line Honor Harrington.

Boom!

Except that the "second part" of ART was published as Shadow of Freedom. :) The original manuscript of ART included the events in the Talbott Sector.

[edit]
That, of course, should not prevent us from speculating on the title of the next book. :)

SWM,

I realise that but IMO as SoF and CoG covered almost the same time frame as ART, I consider the "next" book to be the follow up or concluding part of ART. Part of my reasoning is also the speculation towards the end of ART by Fanoudi(?) & co of an attack on Beowulf by the SLN.

I like Honor Amid Chaos as well. Simply the fact that it has Honor in the title would tickle me pinkish.

But to stir the pot. How about...

A Bit of Honor -- referencing the Harrington Plan.

If it features a scene with everyone packing heat and loaded for bear headed towards Darius then for certain... Honor Among Friends.

My personal favorite considers that this may be the last installment. And it takes into account that Honor has single handedly sketched the plan that would tame the perceived 600 lb gorilla. It is Honor that has been instrumental to both star nations and was the glue in the Grand Alliance. It is Honor who has lost the most from the treacherous MAlign. She has lost a family of humans and a family of treecats.

It is In Honor of Honor that shall drive everyone and give them purpose.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

Well, we all know what the last book of the series should be titled, don't we?

Nah, if there's going to be a second series, which RFC has dangled before us as a possibility, there needs to be an unresolved issues. Like not actually finding either Detweiller or the RF. So I'm proposing:

Muddled Honor.

(The) Demands of Honor might make a good title.

Satisfying Honor is another option, although the double-entendre might be a tad risqué. :oops:

Oh, hell. If you want risque, then Honor and Offer can't be beat. On a more serious note, I think I'd prefer Honor Above All.

It's a pity that MWW's plate is so full. I appreciate Safehold, Multiverse and such, but my main devotion is to HH.
