Halo, Books 1-3 (The Flood; First Strike; The Fall of Reach)

The official novels of the award-winning Xbox game! This set contains The Fall of Reach, First Strike, and The Flood -- the complete chronicles of the bloody Human-Covenant War on Halo.
The Fall of Reach
As the bloody Human-Covenant War rages on Halo, the fate of humankind may rest with one warrior, the lone SPARTAN survivor of another legendary battle . . . the desperate, take-no-prisoners struggle that led humanity to Halo--the fall of the planet Reach. Now, brought to life for the first time, here is the full story of that glorious, doomed conflict.
First Strike
The Human-Covenant war rages on as the alien juggernaut sweeps inexorably toward its final goal: destruction of all human life!
The Flood
The Human-Covenant War, a desperate struggle for humankind’s very survival, has reached its boiling point on the mysterious, ring world called Halo. But the fierce Covenant warriors, the mightiest alien military force known, are not the only peril lying in wait.

From: Amazon Posted: Jan 19, 2008 Type: User Review EXCELLENT SERIES

I started out not caring much about the Halo game. When Halo 2 came out, I got hooked by playing it with my in-laws. This past Christmas, I received a Xbox 360 and the third Halo game. I am so obsessed with the games and story, now, that I just...

Now there aren't any high minded ideals or political innuendo in these series, this isn't Starship Troopers or Ender's Game. That being said they are a great read. I had played through both Halo games and enjoyed them but I wouldn't consider...

From: Amazon Posted: Dec 31, 2007 Type: User Review Halo Series

This is an excellent read if you haven't already played the games. It's a great compliment to the Halo Game Series in that it provides more detail than what is presented in the games. This had a few spelling mistakes and mis-print/duplicate...

From: Amazon Posted: Dec 20, 2007 Type: User Review No game experience needed to enjoy this sci-fi

i actually read these three books before i played through the games myself. i gotta say, this is some of the best sci-fi i've ever had the pleasure of reading. Eric Nylund and Willian Dietz are wonderfully artistic in their words.

The books were enjoyable. Correct order is the Fall of Reach, Flood then First strike. Flood recounted Halo pretty well.
