The story flat out sucks in PDZ.. I mean, I played through it and have no idea what it was about. I'd rather read a story about a slice of bacon.

I actually enjoyed the Halo book from the military perspective. If you're a fan of Starship Troopers the book you would like Halo.

Yup, the 1st and 2nd Halo books were downright awesome sci-fi. I'll credit Bungie's large backstory and Eric Nylunds fantastic writing for that.

See, Halo actually had a good sci-fi story (Sorta Aliens meets Starship Troopers meets Starcraft.). PDZ's story sucks.

Only the latest news from Joystiq!

This book has been out since October 2nd. I had finished it by the 8th.

Anyways, PDZ's story did suck, but this book is awesome. If you liked the original PD story, you will like this book. It is more good sci-fi like the original and not the shitty cartoon story from PDZ.

It explains the whole corporate-run world in much more detail than PDZ, which barely even grazed it. Definitely a must read for any PD fans or for PDZ players that want a better story in the same game universe.

Can't say I've played PDZ (damn you MS Australia and your lame schedule/pricing) but I've read this novel.

To be honest, it was enjoyable for me as a fan of the series but overall I found it lacking in some regards.

For the record (why not) I'm also a huge fan of the Halo novels.
