The Honorverse would take "forever", much like the attempt to produce
the Horatio Hornblower series.

Prince Roger would be great.  Reasonably limited in scope with a
realistic finiteness.  But the Webber/Ringo (mostly Webber) style of
building up a character and then snuffing him/her out in a blink is
sometimes bothersome or even depressing.

Friday by RAH.  That would make a pretty good movie.  Although just
this side of XXX and most assuredly NC17 (or some R rated crap).
