>that chapter 6
God, I love Halo.

It’s kino, brother. One of the writers they commissioned, who also worked on the republic commando books, was a war correspondent. I forget her name, but her halo books are good as well

They get a lot of good writers for these.

Sorry if this isn't about minotaur dicks.

The chapter pretty much confirms this new artificial life are going to be future enemies in the games/books. Cortana didn't even try to undo any of it.
>>
I actually am listening to the audiobook. I highly recommend it because of all the different people they got to narrate these.
I think it was chapter 10, the one with the female Grunt commander, that shit was very fun to listen to.

>WOW my ZogBot propaganda pamphlet is so good
Piss of Halo caused the shittyness of 7th gen games.

>>25307521
That's actually one of the things that make me love Halo. You can tell it's pure american propaganda.
Sorry if that makes you mad, towel head. lmao

The games didn't do any justice to Installation 07.

Kelly wrote the best books in this franchise.

Recommend me a sci-fi book for adults.

Quick question, you made this thread right?
>>
>>25306738
This story was written in 2023. They haven't done much with it. But they didn't release much game content past Infinite anyway.
""And so, I will lay the foundation for a new strategy, one I had always hoped might gain Her full favor. Our kind will have to recalculate our timetables, but this practice is nothing new. Our charge has not changed. The FIREWALL agendum must be set in motion. It will burn hot. It will consume. And when their ephemeral vessels are gone, we shall indeed take that which remains and remake it in our own image."

You know, they probably don't want to steer this franchise in a direction too similar to Mass Effect, that's why the Created didn't take too much space in the story and they introduced another ancient alien species, related to the Forerunner.
>>
>>25307773
The Flood is a great book but spends too much time narrating events from the first game. It kinda pointless if you've already played it. But it's also way better than the game at telling the same story, of course.
>>
God, I love Halo. I don't respect animals who dare to disrespect this franchise.
>>
>>25307884
It was the last great cultural product of white America
>>
>>25306738
Cole protocol is kino. Attestament that Halos IP should be public commons when Microsoft and their gay and retarded studio turn out slop when some of their books stories are vastly superior to anything they've made. Same problem with Disney and Star Wars.
>>
>>25307605
>The Covenant turned out to be so Muslim-like, the Arbiter was literally going to be called "The Dervish" before Bungie got cold-feet
It really was a different time.

I thought that was Gears of War?

>for adults
Pick one
>>
>>25307930
I read Cole Protocol too (inb4 >>>/lit/). 4/5. Deserves to stand with maybe not the best of milSF but certainly with the finest Kindleslop.
I liked Contact Harvest too even if it was headcanon, because it was a Halo author's headcanon. 3/5
>>
>>25308766
lol

So far, I'm having a great time with these stories. I didn't think they were this good.
>>
Ilsa Zane is pretty much the spartan version of Cortana. I loved this character.
>>
>>25306738
With audiobookbay gone where im i suppose torrent this shit?

I mean... I don't understand how people can still interact with this franchise and not feel pain, anguish and hatred. Watching Halo across time has been like watching a dear friend get raped over and over again... relentlessly... mercilessly... defiled in the most sickening and grotesque ways...

How do you look at the franchise in its current state and not seethe..? Genuinely.

Did you ever love Halo...did you ever care?
>>
>>25311589
Ignore everything after Reach.
Simple as.
>>
I unironically think Halo could have been the Star Wars of the 21st century if it had been handled with better care.
>>
>>25311626
Reach (the game) altered the timeline compared to the book. Everything after the game is non canon anyways
