Does it look anything like this: http://www.baen.com/library/ ?

That's the free library. 100% free, 100% legal, 100% with the permission of the author. Only the first two books of the series, except for the exception I mentioned in a previous post.

Could you report that to Jim Baen, please? I'd like to keep these guys in business.

Well that's the odd thing it bears the Baen symbol and has Baen.com in it so I don't know what it is.

Is it possible I just oopsed my way into the paying section?

Possible. In which case, it's still a good idea to report how you did it.

I just typed in Honor Harrington and clicked on every link I could to try and find some info on the universe HH takes place in. Next thing I know I'm looking at a complete Online novel named on Basilisk station, when I hit the index button it took me to the list with all 10 books plus some anthology books.

How do I report that, and who too?

I too would like them to stay in buisness as those are some darn good books and I was thinking about buying WoH since it comse with the CD with all the other books on it

BTW does anyone know where I can find a good tech page for the HH universe because knowing what some of this tech is might help me better undestand some of the stuff being done.

If I recall, there are some tech indicies in the back of a couple of the books, which are probably your best source.

However, while there are a number of sites out there, such as {this one}, be warned that almost all sites contain spoilers for someone who hasn't read the series.

Generally, DW himself explains each tech at one point in the series in the books themselves.

I bought all of mine as ebooks from Fictionwise.com. I don't mind that I paid for them though since I really enjoyed them even if Harrington's superskills stretches credulity after a while.
