Interesting extract from a longer /Film interview with in-demand director Roxann Dawson.
I appreciate how she speaks with respect for the shows of the new era.

@cygnus The earlier books have fantastic, well-thought out space combat scenes, fairly well informed by physics and orbital mechanics.
Everything around those scenes is cringeworthy, and gets much worse as the series goes on. (Honor may be the most Mary Sue character ever.)
Haha yes, I mentioned the Mary Sue aspect in another reply before I saw yours.
spoiler
Especially the disturbing throuple where she eventually marries her old mentor and becomes basically a princess? Come on.
@michaelgemar @cygnus FWIW Honor Harrington is quite literally “Horatio Hornblower Iiiiiinnnn Spaaaaaaace”, so really more of a Gary Stu?
@lkngrrr @cygnus Hornblower is one of my favourites, and I’d argue that he’s a *far* more complex and interesting character than Honor.
