Halo: The Thursday War
Anyone else manage to get through this book? I felt that much like Primordium it dragged out too much. Phillips being lost too much and the focus on Halsey being a bad person really brought the excitement in the book down tremendously. Although when Hood got to exercise the strength of Infinity it started to pick up. But It really does set up the 3rd book nicely and I look forward to seeing Naomi's confrontation with her father and Jul's quest to find the Didact.
Overall not the strongest book in the EU, but not the worst book. Karen Traviss could have stepped up the game a bit more. Opinions?

Loved it. Alas, like all the Halo books with the possible exceptions of Cryptum and Primordium, can't remember a lot of what actually happened. The Kilo-Five series got better and better, with its fantastic pacing and some of the finest characterisation and action seen in Halo books. Shame it's the end. What's that? It isn't? Well, if it's a trilogy, and it started with Ghosts of Onyx, then...
