Halo the Fall of Reach Chapter 27
In this chapter Master Chief is getting another upgrade and a new suit which he does not know yet. He goes into the building and finds Dr. Halsey. She gives Chief the upgrade, which was something implanted in the back of his head, and the new suit which Dr. Halsey says about how the suit he was using before is not as strong as this suit. She tell him that they made hundreds of minor upgrades and two major ones. John finds out one of the major upgrades were that the MJOLNIR armor has shields now. The other was the AI that will be inside the armor helping improve his ability and to take down a Covenate battleship. Dr. Halsey tells Chief that he was going to do some test to work on getting to know the AI, Cortana, and the armor. He is to go though the obstical course that is on the base and to use any means nessecary. The people that are high in rank in ONI wanted Chief to fail so "they might put some twists in the obstical course," said Dr. Halsey Cheif is to get to the end and ring a bell. Dr. Halsey tells him to count to ten and then start the mission. He does and was shot by ODST using live rounds. Then he had to get though a mine field and after that ONI sent helicopters. In the end Chief finished the course coming out alive. I like this chapter because I can picture Master Chief in the first Halo game doing all this. The running, tallking with Cortana, and figuring out what they have to do to stay alive.
Halo the Fall of Reach Chapter 19-20 and 22
Chapter nineteen is a little bit of background information on what happens in chapter twenty. In nineteen we start by following some marines in a warthog driving fast away from Covenate forces. They tell their story about how they were setting up motion sensors when they were attacked ad started to fall back to their base. When they make it back to their base they find out that the base was destroyed and planned to head to HQ. Along the way at one of the checkpoints they find some marines and stay with them. They call for an evac and when one dropship come down the marines get mad thinking one dropship is nothing. Until Master Cheif (aka John) comes out ending chapter nineteen. The Spartans come out and secured the area, and then got up to speed. They tell the marines to take the dropship back. After that happens they move out heading towards Côte d' Azur and find out it is take over by Covenate. They go in and take out some Covenate and find out so interesting things and new Covenate species. I like these chapters because this really shows how powerful the Spartans are compared to the other marines. The speed they move at and the level of thinking they are doing to get the mission done completely without failing.

Halo the Fall of Reach Chapter 17
In this chapter we are following Commander Keyes in UNSC Iroquois. Commander Keyes just found out that a few Covenant ships were coming to the same plant as they were though slipspace. Keyes called in for help as they got ready for a fight. This whole chapter is about how Commander Keyes pulls off the impossible and destroys four Covenant ships while staying alive. Also one of the ships being a destroyer which is much more powerful then the Iroquois. I liked this chapter because the author explains so much detail about what Commander Keyes is thinking about, also the things he does with the ship destroying the others single handily. At the end of the chapter they find out that the Covenant ships deployed dropships to the plants surface heading straight towards and a big city named Côte d' Azur.
