fizzbitch 's review for:
Halo: Epitaph
by Kelly Gay
This was a book I didn't care for when they announced it. I thought it was unnecessary and I had had enough enough of the Didact.... It turns out I was wrong.
This book should not have been necessary, which is something different. But due to Halo 4 and mostly 5, unfortunately we did need it.
And it delivered on redeeming the Didact as a character, with motivations and development, as opposed to the bland villain we see him as in Halo 5. In that regard it succeeds superbly.
There is however much, much more than that. I will not go into what, that is for the reader to find out. All I can say is that it blends elements of Greg Bear's Forerunner trilogy, to which this is most of all an Epitaph. And it is truly worthy of Bearian literature.
Besides that, it also binds together elements of Halo 4, 5 and infinite, and Halo: Escalation. Basically anything that is remotely connected to the Didact, Forerunner in general or the Domain.
