Glasslands

Halo: Glasslands picks up from where Ghosts of Onyx and Halo 3 left off and is another great book in the Halo series.

It was nearly six years ago that I finished Ghosts of Onyx, which left a majority of the main characters on a disgustingly brilliant but massive cliff-hanger. Then the next two books were either a prequel or a compilation.

Glasslands is written by Karen Traviss, who brilliantly wrote the Gears of War novels. And her style is easily recognised, especially her way of having each chapter contain many different character POVs. This isn't bad, and while the new characters and plots are very fleshed out and interesting, it's the continuation of the Onyx plot that I really want to read about.

It's still a good book, and much better than the Forerunner novel saga.

I'm currently reading this book and am finding it hard to put down. It is filling out the story and I have a feeling that the next book is just going to as exciting.
