Halo: The Fall of Reach (1)

Description

The New York Times bestselling origin story of the Master Chief—part of the
expanded universe based on the award-winning video game series Halo! The
twenty-sixth century. Humanity has expanded beyond Earth’s system to hundreds
of planets that colonists now call home. But the United Earth Government and
the United Nations Space Command is struggling to control this vast empire.
After exhausting all strategies to keep seething colonial insurrections from
exploding into a full-blown interplanetary civil war, the UNSC has one last
hope. At the Office of Naval Intelligence, Dr. Catherine Halsey has been hard
at work on a top-secret program that could bring an end to the conflict…and it
starts with seventy-five children, among them a six-year-old boy named John.
And Halsey could never guess that this child will eventually become the final
hope against an even greater peril engulfing the galaxy—the inexorable
confrontation with a theocratic military alliance of alien races known as the
Covenant. This is the electrifying origin story of Spartan John-117—the Master
Chief—and of his legendary, unstoppable heroism in leading the resistance
against humanity’s possible extinction. Read more
