Product Description:
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.

Rating: - Halo Books: Son Loves Them!
My son had been wanting this set for a while, but I didn't like the bookstore prices. Once I found them at Amazon.com, it was a no-brainer. Great Price, Fast Shipping, Brand New!
Rating: - Three of the Coolest Books Ever
These books are not going to win major awards and they aren't going to revolutionize the science fiction genre, but they are still three of the best books I've ever read, and I will always hold them dear to my heart because they were the books that led me to video gaming in general and, specifically, Halo.
"Halo: Fall of Reach" is definitely the best of the three, describing the backstory of the games and the backstory of Master Chief. Eric Nylund does an exceptional job here, and his ... Read More
