Summary

The best-selling adaptation of the iconic video game Halo: Combat Evolved featuring the Master Chief - part of the expanded universe based on the award-winning video game series!

It's 2552. Having barely escaped the final battle for Reach against the vast alien alliance known as the Covenant, the crew of the Pillar of Autumn, including Spartan John-117 - the Master Chief - and his AI companion Cortana, is forced to make a desperate escape into slipspace. But their destination brings them to an ancient mystery and an even greater struggle. In this far-flung corner of the universe floats a magnificently massive, artificial ringworld. The crew’s only hope of survival is to crash-land on its surface and take the battle opposing the Covenant to the ground.

But they soon discover that this enigmatic ringworld is much more than it seems. Built 100,00 years ago by a long-lost civilization known as the Forerunners, this “Halo” is worshiped by the Covenant - a sacred artifact they hope will complete their religious quest for supposed transcendence, and they will stop at nothing to control it. 

Engaging in fierce combat, Master Chief and Cortana will go deep into the Halo construct and uncover its dark secret and true purpose - even as a monstrous and far more vicious enemy than the Covenant emerges to threaten all sentient life on Halo and the galaxy beyond....

Straight and true.

I wasn’t really expecting the story of Halo Combat Evolved. I thought Halo: The Flood would have been more like flood attack encounters. Never the less the story was amazing and thrilling. Would recommend to even people who have played HALO Combat Evolved.

A timeless classic

Halo: The Flood is eseentially the book version of the story of the game Halo Combat Evolved. It follows multiple stories on the Halo Ring both human and Covenant. If you have played Halo Combat Evolved and always wondered what happens between the levels, this book should help you fill in those gaps!

The Narration performance by Todd McLaren is fantastic, he captures the atmosphere and characters perfectly.
