Publisher's summary

An original full-length novel set in the Halo universe and based on the New York Times best-selling video game series!

Just hours following their climactic battle on the Forerunner planet Genesis, the Spartans of Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris find themselves running for their lives from the malevolent machinations of the now-renegade artificial intelligence Cortana. But even as they attempt to stay one step ahead, trouble seems to find Spartan Edward Buck no matter where he turns.

A secret mission enacted by the Office of Naval Intelligence could possibly help turn the tide, and has Buck reluctantly agreeing to reform his old team, Alpha-Nine. Because if the band is really getting back together for this one, that means everybody - including the Spartan who Buck never wants to see again, the one who committed the ultimate betrayal of trust....

Nicely wrapped up! Onto the next!

Alpha 9 will always hold a special place in me. Nice to hear more vibrant human side to the Spartans :)

nicely done

I enjoyed near every bit of this. The reader couldn't have done a better job and as for the story itself, I'm still enamored by the ending scene.

Good! Enjoyable! But...that’s it?

The book is engaging throughout the performance of Scott was flawless as usual. But in the end it felt like it was just started. I felt as if we were left with a story of forgiveness and a sorta (but not really) successful ONI mission. But I was entertained, that’s the goal, right?
