Tina's Reviews > Halo: First Strike

I really enjoyed this book, but I can't remember anything about it! It's not because the book was forgettable, but because half an hour after reading it I suffered a mild concussion and I seriously cannot rememeber A THING about the novel. I remember I really enjoyed that other Spartans were found and that they had distinct personalities (at least Kelly, Fred, and Linda anyway), and the action scenes were quick-paced and realistic (they actually run out of ammo quite a bit, unlike in The Flood where MC kills thousands of those creatures and never runs out. Does he dispense it like pez out of his helmet or something? Sheesh). Oh, and I recall that the inclusion of other non-Spartan soldiers was a nice touch as well. I especially liked the tragic romance between Locklear and Polaski.

Memory loss aside, I flew through this novel and it was a lot of fun!
