### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A teenage fiction story that just happens to be set in the Halo universe--not worth the money
  

*by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2018*

Buy this book only if you are so hard up for Halo lore that anything will do (like I was).Here's the bottom line: this book is mostly the story of a group of kids--yes, kids--who unbelievably manage to save the shield world Trevelyan (known as Onyx to most) from both an attack by rogue Sangheili and--wait for it--a Guardian that's been hiding on Onyx.What, you say?  Why would a Guardian be inside a Forerunner shield world when Halo 5 established they were used to keep order in the "lower systems" (non-Forerunner) that were under Forerunner control?  Why would it be put inside their most massive, secure facility inside the galaxy? Forbeck gives an excuse of it being there to monitor initial construction, but that is a thin reed.  A Guardian inside Onyx just makes no sense given what we know about them, but that's not the worst part of the book.The biggest failing is that one spends more than half the time reading about the internal emotional conflicts of a teen, Molly Patel, and her journey from xenophobia and downright hatred of aliens (she survived when her world was glassed and parents killed during the war) to the touching scene of hugging them as friends at the end.  That's all fine and well, but this is Halo.  I've read just about every Halo novel there is, and this has less action than any of them.  It's not that I mind a little human interest in a Halo novel, but I do draw the line at page after weary page of internal monologue from a teenager and her teary arguments with her adoptive parents.  I care about the Master Chief's emotional development.  Not so much Molly Patel's.Another problem with Forbeck's book is that the adult humans he portrays are idiots.  If you know anything about how Jul 'Mdama became leader of his Covenant faction, you know that he was once prisoner on Onyx (read Karen Traviss's excellent trilogy for more) and escaped by forcing a Huragok to let him go through a portal to a random location that happened to be a Sangheilli world.  One might reasonably suppose that, paranoid and thorough as ONI is, the first thing it would have done would be to spare no expense on ensuring that the Huragok on Onyx locked down the portals--and if not all of them (Onyx is a big place), at least the SAME one Jul had used to escape.  But no, Forbeck's grownups didn't have that brainwave, so he writes a totally implausible means for hostile forces to sneak into Onyx.  That plot point can only work if ONI had a brain fart that lasted for years.  Hard to believe, and even more annoying given the ending.And another thing: this book moves the ball essentially nowhere.  We know basically nothing more about what happens next, after Halo 5, and we learn nothing of importance about the past.  No major villains are defeated or revealed, no major heroes triumph or die.  We don't even get to enjoy learning more about characters who matter, like Halsey or Mendez or Blue Team or Parangosky or Osman or Hood, or new ominous technology, and frankly we barely see the Spartans at all.What this book reads like is a teenage fiction piece that just happens to be set in the Halo universe.  It is not remotely on the same level of writing quality as Eric Nylund's works, or Greg Bear's, or Traviss's.  If you want to read good Halo fiction, read them.

    Very disappointed
  

*by K***T on Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2018*

I have bought all of the Halo books, graphic novels, etc.  This is the only one that I had to force myself to finish.  I also considered throwing it away after I finished reading it.  This is what should be on the cover: A billboard.  And on the billboard is a picture of UNSC soldiers and Spartans smiling.  In front of them is a family smiling.  Under them is written:  Welcome to Onyx...Building a better tomorrow.  If this is what Halo is going to become, I am joining up with the Insurrectionists.  Good points: when the Spartans and UNSC soldiers (and Mike Spencer) were fighting.  Doing what they were trained to do.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good story, a nice fresh change of perspective
  

*by S***X on Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2018*

i bought this when i started back into reading Halo novels. i did read some of the reviews of other who had ordered it but i wasn't dissuaded by them. i actually found this story to be rather refreshing. taking place before and during Halo 5, it focuses on a young girl who survived something that few in the universe have. i found myself relating to molly in many ways and love the dynamics of her character and growth. she grows throughout the book and learns how to let go of hatred.i cant wait for the sequel. i really wanna know what happens to all of the characters on onyx
