That isn't Honor Harrington. It's one of the Mesans.

Ah no, she has golden hair and gray eyes. Honestly i don't remember if she has long or short hair... When i worked on this illustration, a long hair seemed to be cool (for me). I guess that she can change sometimes ;)

Pretty cool there. I think they match pretty well to how I imagined them :)

Thank you. For me it is the best congratulation :) May be one day... I have to admit that i've never seen the covers from your country. I'm going to search for them. I like to see the other versions of the HH covers.

Have a good week-end

You. Are. Amazing.X1000
You have no idea how much I love this.
I love your covers more than the boring, dull, somewhat unimaginative covers us people in the USA have to deal with.
Okay! Time for the questions so I can waste your precious time!(haven't read the book in a while so..)
Who are the two people in front of the planet?
Am I right in assuming that the planet is Manticore?
I'm also taking a wild guess that the evil looking dudes below the DNA are Manpower.
*bows down to the awesomeness of Genkkis*
I am seriously thinking about somehow buying these books in French just for the covers, wouldn't read them, just admire them.

Really.Thank.You.Again ;)

I'm really happy that you enjoy my work so much. Usually i say to people who put my covers in their favourites "i'll do my best to make you love the next one"
I'm happy because, at least, i managed to do it for you :) (i don't know if i'm clear)

To answer to your questions :
I thougt that it was time to show people of Manpower. They are in many stories but i don't know any cover with them...
So i decided to draw them because they are very important.

On the first book :
Front cover(on the right) : Michelle Henke
Back cover (center): Bardasano (responsible of the special operations for manpower)

On the second book
front cover :
Albrecht Deiweiller and Aldona Anisimovna. The planet is "neo toscan".
With the DNA it's Albrecht Deitweiller and his sons.

*Please stand up, you'll make me blush it's just an illustration* :)
If you really want to buy these books, you can find them with online canadian bookstores(Quebec). I guess that the delivery would be cheaper.

Have a nice day (again ;) )

At last, i found it. I remembered an online bookstore where you can find or order theses books Renaud-bray.com: [link]

It's cool because the website is both in french and in english.

Just write honor harrington in the search field and you'll find them. The french publisher is "l'atalante"

Have a nice week-end :)

Poor Hephaestus, Vulcan and Weyland. I know that's in Mission of Honor, but that's what I think of when I see that blast in orbit.

The Grayson industrial machine is needed once more.
