I think we hold the books in too high a regard.
Posted By: Riceatron <riceatron@hotmail.com>Date: 9/19/10 2:28 a.m.


Ghosts of Onyx.
Contact Harvest.
Evolutions.
Cole Protocol.

I like those. They're recent. They were written with the knowledge that we have NOW.

Fall of Reach.
First Strike.
The Flood.

I don't like those.
Why?
Oh, they're great books, but they're OLD.
Fall of Reach came out in 2001, from then to 2010, we have had new Covenant ships, characters, species, planets, games.

It is out dated and we need to quit saying OH HEY LETS CONFORM TO A BOOK WRITTEN WHEN WE HAD NOTHING BUT A SINGLE GAME.

Really, guys.
You don't hold a Star Wars novel written when Return of The Jedi was made to the same level of quality to one written last year.
