Halo: Bad Blood

A novel I didn't expect to enjoy as much as I did.

Halo: Bad Blood was a pleasant surprise. I had originally intended to read it alongside Halo: Shadow of Intent, but that didn't quite pan out. Bad Blood turned out to be the novel I enjoyed more. Matt Forebeck's excellent dialog and character writing made the book for me. I wanted to see what happened to Alpha-Nine at every step along the way. The plot wasn't hugely impactful to Halo lore, but it was a fun story I don't regret experiencing.
