Title: If you Don't play, Don't read.
Review: I don't play Halo. I got sucked into this series with Fall of Reach, which was a very entertaining book. I went on to book 2, The Flood, and it was horrid. But I gave book #3 a try because it was not the same author as #2. This book is nowhere near as bad as The Flood, but also nowhere near as good as Reach. Nylund got lazy and pumped out a book that reads like watching someone play the game...its shallow, boring, and the ending is unsatifying.I guess fans of the game like seeing their favorite characters/missions fleshed out, thus the high review ratings. Maybe a series like this appeals mostly to people that don't read a lot of science fiction. It sure seems to me that Nylund didn't bother putting any effort into this...perhaps he decided to write to his audience level. I don't know...but if you've never played Halo, do yourself a favor and skip this.
