Halo: First Strike by Eric S. Nylund

5.0

Eric Nylund is an absolutely incredible author. This and The Fall of Reach are not just interesting Halo books, but phenomenal works of fiction that could easily interest someone who has never even heard of Halo. This was no exception, answering every question I had about the events between Halo 1 and 2. The characters were awesome, the plot was compelling, and I have no complaints whatsoever. This book, written in 2003, sets up plot elements for the series up to 8 years later. Easy 5 stars.
