An all-new digital single—part of the New York Times bestselling series based on the blockbuster Xbox® games!

The military-grade artificial intelligence known as Iona has only one week to live. After that, the UNSC will legally terminate her seven-year existence in order to stave off the threat of the data corruption phenomenon known as “rampancy,” a condition that will eventually take hold of her functionality and persona, endangering all those around her. In a last-ditch effort to save herself, Iona has successfully launched an unprecedented legal appeal against her own death sentence—a case being watched very closely at not only the highest levels of human government, but by others with a very different agenda… Adventure Fantasy Fiction Military Science Fiction Thought-Provoking Heartfelt

As a fan of the Halo universe this war a niche insight into the mind of an A.I.

Great book

If you are a fan, truly a fan this story will bring on so many emotions. While the book is short the narrative involved is vast. The subject matter encompasses an issue as grave to mankind as the atomic bomb and guided missiles. That being Artificial Intelligence becoming self aware and machine consciousness.

On the fictional story side of things I found this novelette to be not only compelling but also a great listen. The narrator is a favorite. As a Halo junkie I couldn't wait to listen to it. Evidence put forth during the hearing.( which is the entirety of the book) for me proves that the UNSC and ONI needs to forgive Dr Catherine Halsey and stop using her as the scapegoat for all the ills of the war. Her work and theories saved mankind. The last 8 minutes of the story had me cheering however too many spoilers to go into details.

All said this is another great Halo listen With a mix of social commentary

Last 8 minutes is profound.

it flowed well. worth the money, adds what you would want in the halo universe. the very end have me more questions than resolve. I didn't know what was meant to be carried on into the universe, seemed to cut itself short.. amazing author though..

wonderful but the ending was.. odd
