Book Reviews of Ghosts of Onyx (Halo)
Book Review: Good but Technical
Summary: 4 Stars
This book follows the previous halo books, however does not go with the same story line. Instead of following the Famed Xbox character "Master Chief" or John (known to us who's read the books), it follows a different path with the other spartan characters being the main focus.
This book is a well written book for the Halo series. If you have enjoyed reading the other books, then you will certainly enjoy reading this one, however it gets quite technical at some points. The past books filled us with different battles, and scenarios. This book has many fictional technicalities that you must pay attention to in order to enjoy it fully. If you do not understand something the first time, read it over again because it will be mentioned later on in the book.
Again this book is a great addition to the Halo series and if you are a fan of the books and like to know more than just the gameplay, then this is for you.
Book Review: The best yet in the series
Summary: 4 Stars
Before reading this book I bought the box set and read the first three in the series. The first book was littered with gross typos, the second book mostly failed to deliver (due to the author's lack of detail at many times), but the third book was better. "Halo: Ghosts of Onyx" is by far the best in the series. It was more professionally done as there were less typos (if any at all) and there was close attention to detail most of the time. I like the idea of the Spartan III program and some new technologies associated with it. However, the one thing with Halo that bores me is all of the "space quest". I'm a fan of Spartan action, so when they're just flying around in outer space, my interest drops a bit. But once again, this book is definitely the best in the series so far.Book Review: Good but a bit predictable at this point
Summary: 4 Stars
I have enjoyed all the Halo books so far but this one felt a bit like it was relying a tad too much on the previous story lines. Still worth reading and enjoying but I am beginning to want the Forerunner technology to be a bit smarter about recognizing the Reclaimers.Book Review: good book
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a good book expands well on the halo universe, its nice to read about something other then a halo, or master chief.Book Review: Ghosts of Onyx (Halo)
