Story
Saskia, Dorian, Evie, and Victor aren't exactly friends at their small high school on the middle-of-nowhere colony world of Meridian. Each has their own problems, from absent parents to supporting their family, getting into a good college to making the next hit holo-film. But those problems were nothing next to the threat now facing their world: The alien alliance known as the Covenant is laying siege to Meridian. With their village in flames, the four teens find themselves stuck aboveground, locked out of the town shelter where the rest of the survivors are gathered.

Predator ships stream into human space in unprecedented numbers. The Colonial Marines, controlled by Weyland-Yutani, respond to the incursion, thus entering the Rage War. This terrifying assault by the Yautja cannot go unchallenged, yet the cost of combat is high. Predators are master combatants, and each encounter yields a high body count. Then, when Lt. Johnny Mains and his marines - the VoidLarks - enter the fray, they discover an enemy deadlier than any could imagine.

A great anthology

Summary
An original full-length novel set in the Halo universe and based on the New York Times best-selling video game series!
Just hours following their climactic battle on the Forerunner planet Genesis, the Spartans of Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris find themselves running for their lives from the malevolent machinations of the now-renegade artificial intelligence Cortana. But even as they attempt to stay one step ahead, trouble seems to find Spartan Edward Buck no matter where he turns.
A secret mission enacted by the Office of Naval Intelligence could possibly help turn the tide and has Buck reluctantly agreeing to reform his old team, Alpha-Nine. Because if the band is really getting back together for this one, that means everybody - including the Spartan Buck never wants to see again, the one who committed the ultimate betrayal of trust....

A great addition to the ODST story
after going over new blood a continuation of halo 3 ODST i felt a series of books about the squad were a needed addition to halos canon.
this book continues that perfectly and I am surprised with how well it allowed me to change prospective on characters.
if you finished halo 5 and need to know more
this is where to start (granted after you read new blood)

Edward. Malcolm. Buck.
There are no characters that are a better choice to narrate a story than Buck. His narrative voice is human and relatable. That combined with a story that compensates for Halo 5s lack of one, makes an amazing book. Brick's narration fits perfectly, too.

Awful, no story, no point to it
No idea what the point of this book was, basically 4/5 of it is backstory (which anyone who likes Halo or read previous books will know) or character relationship which goes on for chapter after chapter and only in the very end does anything actually start to happen and even then it's not very interesting or even remotely original.
Scott Brick is a very good narrator but his range of voices is limited, so while it doesn't detract from the story it doesn't add anything either.
Honestly, there was nothing good about this book at all.
