Just stopping by to share a two-part video review I made of Halo: First Strike through a feminist lens:

*Part 1
*Part 2

My general assessment is that it's okay but not great and that the adjunct stories reveal a sharp contrast between the just-okay female characters of First Strike and the well-written female characters of the adjunct stories. I mostly review the book in general and complain about the Forerunner crystal plot device, Haverson killing a Huragok, and the UNSC's overall fascism.

Please check it out, if you would. :)
