Prologue - First entry for TOK book (Halo: Ghosts of Onyx)

Holy crap. Wow. Umm... that was uber extreme.

The 2 main characters (Tom & Lucy) blew up a reactor that went off like a nuke and destroyed EVERYONE that was involved in that giant-enemy battle. (we're talking thousands)

And the two characters are freaking TWELVE YEARS OLD?! Makes me feel like chopped liver!

Other than that, some minor things I noticed was the use of calling them SPARTAN IIIs; I'm pretty sure the previous book had SPARTAN IIs.

And Tom & Lucy themselves. Who are they and what relevance do they have on the story? They weren't in any of the earlier novels...

Also the battle, what was that about? There was no relation with it to the previous book as well. (at least as far as I know or can remember)

Lucy went mute from shock or something after the battle. Is that even physically possible? Though, the book did mention that it's possible that she's just unwilling to speak instead of not being able to. It was dubbed "posttraumatic vocal disarticulation" in the book.
