In Response To: Just a John! (Hamish Sinclair)

: Harry Al-Shakarchi sent in these tidbits from the recently published Halo
: prequel novel "Halo: The Fall of Reach": _______

: I received the book yesterday and have read through it a little. I am
: enjoying it immensely even if the beginning was a bit slow. Tons of mentions
: of MJOLNIR MARK I suits and the "MJOLNIR phase." Also, at one point
: later in
: the book, we learn of The Pillar of Autumn's age. I saw that was skimming
: past a few pages... Caught my eye. But I'm not that far yet. It said, if I
: remember correctly, that the age of the ship was 43... The current year in
: that chapter was between 2525 and 2530.

: Oh yeah... Master Chief's real name is "John" I think. He seems to
: be a very
: central character (this is before the SPARTANS get their green MJOLNIR
: suits). His code number is 117. :)

: Oh, and a AI teacher in a history lesson shows kids a battle where the
: Spartans were able and swift killers in a battle at Thermopylae against
: Persions.

: Oh, one last thing. A Covenant transmission is played: "Your destruction
: is
: the will of the Gods...and we are their instrument." Sound familiar?

: _____

: Master Chief's real name is "John"?!!!. Better than Bob right? ;-)

: Cheers
: Hamish
