==Author==

~~Within TRMN, David~~ Weber ~~is honored as the Prime Minister of the~~ [[~~Star Kingdom of Manticore~~]] and has ~~been created [[Grand Duke]]~~ of ~~New Montana~~. He is the ~~premier companion~~ of the ~~[[Most Noble Order of the Star Kingdom]] as well~~ as ~~Knight Grand Cross of~~ the ~~[[Most Honorable Order~~ of ~~King Roger]]~~ and ~~the [[Most Regal Order of Queen Elizabeth]]~~.

Weber's [[Honorverse]] began with ''On Basilisk Station'' (1993) and has since grown into one of the most extensively developed settings in modern military science fiction, spanning dozens of novels and anthologies. Beyond the Honor Harrington novels he is the author of the ''Safehold'', ''War God'' (Bahzell Bahnakson), and ''Dahak'' series, and is a frequent collaborator, co-authoring works such as the ''Starfire'' and ''Empire of Man'' series. He is noted among readers for his meticulously detailed worldbuilding, naval strategy, and technology.
