Halo: The Thursday War
by Karen Traviss is published by Tor (£7.99).
“This is a life-or-death mission for ONI’s black-ops team,
Kilo-Five, which is tasked with preventing the ruthless Elites, once the
military leaders of the Covenant, from regrouping and threatening humankind
again. What began as a routine dirty-tricks operation ― keeping the Elites busy
with their own insurrection ― turns into a desperate bid to extract one member
of Kilo-Five from the seething heart of an alien civil war.
But troubles never come singly for Kilo-Five. Colonial
terrorism is once again surfacing on one of the worlds that survived the war
against the Covenant, and the man behind it is much more than just a name to
Spartan-010. Meanwhile, the treasure trove of Forerunner technology recovered
from the shield world of Onyx is being put to work while a kidnapped Elite
plots vengeance on the humans he fears will bring his people to the brink of
destruction.”
