About this audiobook

An original full-length novel set in the Halo universe and based on the New York Times bestselling 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…

Ratings and reviews

If you like Alpha 9 from Halo 3 ODST, then you will love this book. A great story from start to finish, and fits into Halo's lore quite well. A definite must read/listen

very good reading experience! alot of good drama and action. the complex relationship with alpha 9 Carrie's this story

Scott Brick is trash. this book is so much better than new blood.
