Pretty good. It was to short. I wanted to read more but BOOM the end came. So next story write more. And the action kinda happend a little to quick.

Pretty good story man.

But some things bother me.

They woke up to the sound of the tanks and I know that tanks are loud but wouldn't the explosions from the Wraith's gun be louders? How come they didn't wake up to that?

And when the Ranger (and hell yeah to them) said they've taken Sara. Did they mean the city?

i didnt really anitate how far away the city was. but in my mind it was too far away for them to hear. and yes, sara was the city. i apologize for it being too short, but thats just how i imagin prologues to be. thanks for reading anyways.

Yeah it was dang short, so not a LOT to comment on, but certainly not too shabby. Very Happy

I don't understand why you don't capitilise in your posts though, because it's really annoying Wink

Being a prolouge, length can be forgiven. I thought your middle paragraphs were a bit choppy, which hurt your flow a little bit. I like how you immediately put us into an emotional bond with your Sergeant, well done. You obviously have a good handle on military tactics, terminology, etc., but I think kudos are due to you anyway. This should be good, I'll be waiting for the next chapter.

Nice prologue. I will make sure to read the series. Nice description, and I could just imagine what was going on there. Good job. 9/10

Great story but a little short. There were a few problems, When the Covenant land on a planet they don't just take one city, they take the city and the entire surrounding area. You had them just taking the city. Also, was there a Marine base nearby? If there wasn't then I'm pretty sure the Marines couldn't have gotten all those tanks and warthogs so close to the city already. Another thing; even if David and his wife lived far away from the city I'm pretty sure the noise of the Covenant ships entering the atmosphere would wake them up.

I liked it; although short, but that's already been pointed out, hasn't it? However, the series shows promise, and I'm glad to see you got some more time on your hands to write; but then again, it is summer.

A couple GPS errors in there, but nothing seriously out of wack. Keep it up, muchacho.
