Halo: Last Light

An original novel set in the Halo Universe and based on the New York Times bestselling video game series!

It is 2553, and the three-decade long Covenant War that defined a generation has suddenly drawn to a close. Yet, in the remotest parts of human space, tensions remain that threaten to overflow into another full-scale conflict. Beneath the surface of the planet Gao lies a vast cavern system renowned for its therapeutic effects and rumored miraculous cures. But now Gao natives are turning up brutally murdered down there—violent acts that happen to coincide with the recent arrival of a UNSC research battalion protected by Spartan Blue Team, led by the renowned Spartan-II Fred-104.

Maverick detective Veta Lopis of the Gao Ministry of Protection is only trying to do her job as the Special Inspector assigned to catch a serial killer—one who is possibly hiding within the Spartan ranks—but she never anticipates the situation spiraling out of control into an all-out crisis. When Gao is revealed to harbor ancient Forerunner technology that could solidify the UNSC’s military supremacy for centuries to come, Insurrection loyalists within the planetary government will do anything—even align with a vicious faction of what remains of the Covenant—to ensure that never happens…

Great Book

Loved it, its so well written and easy to follow. If u love halo lore than u will love this

They should make thIs into a movie..

I honestly thought that while this had some bits lacking for all out action thIs has a better story then a lot of the games themselves.

Starts a little slow, but well worth the listen.

Scott Brick does another amazing Halo Narration. The beginning is a little tedious, but once the story goes outside the caves then it picks up drastically.

Doubted it at first

Give it a few chapters. Fred’s character really gets fleshed out, and Veda lopis’s character becomes more and more interesting

awesome book

great book that really goes into Freds story and the spartan 3s. if you liked any of those stories you'll love this one.
