Yeah. I went there. Read a novel based in the Halo universe. On my iPhone.
It’s what you’d expect of a hastily written book based on a video game. That didn’t make it unentertaining. It was quite entertaining actually, owing to the merits of Halo’s rich universe. But it is unfulfilling.
Synopsis: battle, training, battle, training, battle, battle, brief ruminations, battle, battle… and so on. More an explanation than an exploration of the origins of Master Chief and the Halo universe, The Fall of Reach builds a framework but doesn’t go much further.
★★★ - I liked it, but hey, I’m a Halo fan. Bias applicable here. {Buy it on Amazon and be as big a Halo nerd as me.}
