No current Talk conversations about this book. awsome book ( ) I found this to be an enjoyable piece to add to my collection of halo items even though the story was prolific. I take my hat off simply to the fact that they were able to not completely mess it up yet another expansion of the halo universe. Make no mistake, this is a graphic novel to a video game series with a book series off-shoot. As a halo experience for people who are into graphic novels it may fall short. If you value it as a nice item to add to your halo collection or a graphic novel for people who enjoy halo, this is worth picking up. This is by no means a bad graphic novel, but it isn't really great either. The first story includes a pretty engaging account of a Covenant encounter with the Flood. Beyond that, the stories are pretty sparse and add very little to any coherent narrative of the Halo universe. The illustrations are serviceable, but I found them rather busy and were sometimes difficult for me to follow the visual narrative. The backstory to the Halo universe has enormous potential and I'd hoped that this would fill in some of that, but I'll have to wait for something else to come along. no reviews | add a review

This book includes four classic Halo stories that expand the deep lore of the Halo universe told by some of the finest creators in comic-book history. Artist Simon Bisley and writer Lee Hammock give us the central tale titled "The Last Voyage of the Infinite Succor." Award-winning mangaka Tsutomu Nihei writes and draws a tale of Sgt. Johnson's epic escape in "Breaking Quarantine". Ed Lee, Andrew Robinson, and Jay Faerber team up on a story of technology in the 26th century with "Armor Testing." Finally, Brett Lewis and the world-renowned artist Jean "Moebius" Giraud round out this one-of-a-kind Halo experience with a story that showcases humanity's plight against the Covenant from a unique civilian perspective in "Second Sunrise Over New Mombasa.".
