4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Space Adventure, June 19, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Halo (Paperback)

I came across this book used then bought the Bantam print-on-demand version because I liked it so much. Basically, this is a no-holds-barred space adventure of a group on Moon-based scientists who attempt to curtail an alien invasion. A giant "halo" flies through the solar system and seeds the earth with globes that stultify the human mind. The Moon Men act as a team and travel to the source of the halo in the second half of the book. My only complaint is that the book seemed to be a compression of two novels. I guess Bantam wasn't into series back in the mid-1980s when this book came out. I'd have loved to see both halves expanded. Great book. Track it down if you can.

2.0 out of 5 stars Second half of book, May 21, 2004

This review is from: Halo (Paperback)

This book was like coming into the middle of a movie. The first half of the book just left me with a lot of questions on who and what certain things were. I thought at first this must be the second half of a series. The author would make observations on something and not give any background information on them. I spent most of the book just totally lost on what and why they would do certain things.
