it's a realy good sci-fi but the action is nowere near nylund's novels
I think that since Greg was trying to do something different when he wrote the first halo book that has a protagonist who never touches a weapon of any kind or get into any sort of fight, that it would be contradictory to have normal ground engagements even though it's obvious that forerunners barely ever do that, what with their particle deconstruction rays that can dismantle an entire ship win seconds and immensely powerful giant armor suits that can fly and stasis feilds and pain projectors and all. Frankly, the traditional battle sequences of halo novels always feel shoehorned in and unfitting. This book focused more on the interesting side of halo's story: the galactic drama, not the trench warfare.
