Thanks for all the recommendations of this book! I loved plaguing the Halo games when I was younger but never read any of the books. I knew a handful of people in high school who said they loved the...

The Fall of Reach, The Flood, and First Strike were the first 3 books in this series. If a deal comes up on eBooks anytime soon I wouldn't think twice about getting them all and reading them again.

Everyone is spot on here. The first entry, The Fall of Reach, is still the best sci-fi novel I've ever read. Eric Nylund is a masterful writer. I read the trilogy (plus the follow-ups like Ghosts of...

Right? Fall of Reach was a masterpiece, still the best sci-fi novel I've ever read. As for this one, it has some great moments that just can't be depicted in video game form. Like the one you...

First one is about The Fall of Reach and the third is First Strike. Last one is the only one of these I read and it was very good, taking place between Halo 1 and 2.

I'm surprised so many people liked this book. I remember this one being weaker than The Fall of Reach or First Strike. It was worth a read but i didn't enjoy it nearly as much as the other two.

Are the kindle editions marked down often? Will pick this up but haven't read any of the series. Sounds like first four at least are worth reading.
