The Secret Crusade by Oliver Bowden

4.0

THIS is the most AMAZING ADAPTATION EVER!!!!!!!!!! I've never read a game adaptation before. I started one of the HALO adapts, but I haven't played the game, so I had no clue what to expect. Anyways I never got around to finishing it.

Anyways - This book deserves a total 5/5. The only reason I give it a 4 is because of the ending. It was quite sudden how it ended and I wished that Altair's and Maria's relationship was explored a little bit more - although I assumed from the beginning that they'd end up together. I would ahve like to see Altair's proposal to her - Even though those details weren't in the game - It would've have been nice to add into the book.

The action scenes were dynamic and descriptive - Not too much a bore for the detailed speeches - Although I had trouble remembering everyone's names :P
