Featuring author Eric Nylund at the helm, this tale bridges the events that take place in the game Halo: Combat Evolved (as novelized in The Flood) and its blockbuster follow-up, Halo 2.
After destroying the first Halo, Master Chief and Cortana attempt to voyage back home among a myriad of deadly Covenant attacks. With a battle weary squad, that includes the last of the Spartan-II survivors and the program's creator, Dr. Catherine Halsey, First Strike delivers an action-packed space opera told against the backdrop of one of the richest and most complex Science Fiction franchises of our time.

The Master Chief blows up a 20-mile long ship with surprising ease and is then forced to solve the trolley problem. A lot of this book was not super memorable, but I liked seeing the cunning side of Halsey with the Boren's syndrome situation. The slipspace-bubble-time-stuff was weird. I liked the make-shift vibes of Chief's return home, with the Gettysburg-Ascendant Justice and the nuke they left behind.
