Struggled to keep me engaged, despite having some really cool lore and backstories to Jenkins and Johnson, both important characters in The Flood and the aftermath of that.
Feel like I missed a lot of the lore connections this book had to offer - just didn't have the narrative sparkle that some of the others have had.

This has been the best Halo novel I've read so far. For being Joseph Staten's first novel it isn't terrible. Like the first four Halo novels, this book lacked characters that I cared about. The only thing that made this better than the previous books is the glimpse you get into the world of the Covenant and the start of the Human-Covenant War.

Neat from a lore perspective, but drab, lifeless, and a little insulting to fans of good character.

Overall great book, but it takes a long time to get into. It's really cool to learn about the covenant lore and the species of the covenant. The last 2 chapters are amazing, and it beautifully wraps up the book. W book and a must read for halo books.
