After seeing the books, I have to admit the graphics of the ships did lack
some of the elegance I expected, but oh well... :)
On Basilisk Station is the first book of the series, and it continues as
follows:
The Honor of the Queen
The Short Victorious War
Field of Dishonor
Flag in Exile
Honor Among Enemies
In Enemy Hands
Echoes of Honor
Ashes of Victory
IMHO, the first five are the best, but that's just me.
Happy reading :)
