"Halo: The Cole Protocol expanded the Halo universe a bit. The writing style and quality, the characters, the dialogue, and the settings are below average. This is a quick and easy read that has some decent action scenes but not much else. The basic premise could have been the starting point for a very exciting, well developed science fiction novel, yet somewhere the author fumbled the ball."
"While the premise of the book was an interesting one and the story worked hard to maintain the same breakneck pace that the games hold, the constant jumping back and forth between three or four different groups all doing their own, but related, things every couple pages for the latter half was rather jarring and at times tiresome to keep up with. That said, the book does follow the normal formula for entries in the Halo universe, with Spartans, ODSTs and AIs on the verge of rampancy galore, as well as introducing a few new angles on the old concepts. If you only have time to read one book in the series this might not be the one."
