It's HERE!!!
No kidding. This is not a teaser. The second volume of the Man of War Trilogy, For Honor We Stand is now available as an Amazon Kindle e book. The Nook edition on Barnes & Noble and the paperback edition will be along shortly. It was a good pregnancy, but a difficult birth. We really like the way the baby looks. We hope you do, too.

Thank you. I just finished reading it and posted my review. 5 stars of course. You guys are so evil though for that ending. Have you started the next book yet? And thank you for continually updating the glossary with each book.
Really enjoying it so far. Thank you! Hmm, the ending sounds ominous, based on what jh85 said.
One question... near location 2046, you mention the planets being nearly 4 AU apart, then say that was a trip of just over half an hour. Since they are at on compression drive at 10c, wouldn't that be 40 AU?
(Sorry if that comes across as pedantic. I just wanted to make sure I didn't misinterpret something.)
jh85,
Thank you for the review. We really appreciate it. And thanks for the comment on the ending. When we started the book, the first paragraph and the last paragraph were the only things that were really clear in our minds. And, no we have not started the next one. With self publishing, you are working until the minute it gets uploaded (which is about 4 hours before it became available)and then you spend a few days blogging and Facebooking and emailing to promote the book, so I'm still working this one.
I want to read a few Naval Histories and some other source material before starting the next one. There's some background I want to refresh.

RxScram,
See that yellow stuff on my face. It's egg. I had actually caught that in my second to last edit and forgot to fix it. You are absolutely correct, except we have to shorten the transit time to fit the 4 AU distance rather than making it 40 AU because for the two planets to be 40 AU apart, they would have to be so far away from Rashid's sun that they would not be habitable, much less have the kind of climate that Rashid IV is described as having.
At 10 c, 4 AU is about 3.3 minutes rather than the 33 minutes I was figuring because somehow I originally did the computation as being at 1 c rather than 10 c.
This is the sort of crap that will drive you crazy when you write this stuff and that editor types don't catch because they don't do the math (because they don't know that an AU is about 8.3 light minutes).
The beauty of Kindle is that I can fix that tomorrow and it will be right for everyone who buys it from that point on and anyone who erases it from their device and re-downloads it will have it correct.
Thanks for pointing that out. As you can see, that really is a help because with ebooks we can fix the problem and 95% of the people who read the book will encounter the correct number.
RxScram,
The correction is made and uploaded. The new text will replace the old in a few hours so that new purchasers and anyone who redownloads will get the corrected text. The wonders of e-books. Thanks for pointing this out.

Hi Paul,
I certainly hadn't meant for you to get egg on your face over my comment. Anyway, thanks for taking the feedback and correcting the novel... now other readers may never know! :-)
Great ending by the way... very much looking forward to the next in the series.
RxScram, I don't mind the egg. Unlike some authors, I don't suffer from delusions of infallibility. I've written exactly two novels and am still getting the hang of this whole thing. There are aspects that we have mastered, I think, and lots of areas where we are still learning. Fortunately, most of the latter don't get in the way of the story too badly. Maybe the insufferable ego will come if we get picked up by Baen Books or sell a million copies or start getting calls from Ron D. Moore or Peter Jackson, but until then it does not seem to be happening.
