Halo: First Strike (English Wikipedia)

"The Halo Novels". Digital Monkey Box Reviews. Archived from the original on March 4, 2016. Retrieved August 1, 2008. The biggest failing with Halo: First Strike is that by the time Master Chief meets up with Fred, his character and that of the other Spartans has already been built up to the point that they have lives of their own. Once the story becomes the Master Chief's again what had been building completely dissolves. The other Spartans essentially fall back into the role of faceless props.
