This book takes place somewhere between the years of 2534 and 2536, which if I am correct in thinking is after the events of Halo Wars but before the events in Halo: The Fall Of Reach (which is the prequel novel to Halo: Combat Evolved, and finishes in the year 2552, whilst starting in the year 2525).
I found it a very exciting read and whilst it doesn't follow the story of the prophets that heavily, by the end it reveals a lot more about them and their corrupt way of thinking.
The story tends to switch between the story of Captain Keyes (who is not yet a Captain), Ignatio Delgado (a resident of The Rubble, which is where the story takes place), Spartan Grey team and Thel 'Vadam (better known as the Arbiter from Halo 2 and Halo 3).
I thought that following this many characters would get quite confusing, however, it is very clever how all their stories intertwine and come together at the end.
I've read all of the Halo books and this is definitely right up there with the rest.
