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?

24 RepliesI'd say it was one of my favorites. To be honest I'm not really a fan of the Primordium book. It was slow. I can appreciate that, but it just was a little TOO slow for me. Thursday War, on the other hand, I didn't find a single chapter boring or tedious. I loved the Phillips part and the focus on the moral consequences of Halsey's actions. It's exciting. ... Though I think it's BS how Olson (that's her name right? I forget a little) ordered Halsey Dead in Spartan Ops now...
