Halo: Evolutions: Essential Tales of the Halo Universe
Halo Evolutions Essential Tales of the Halo Universe Author:Jonathan Goff (Editor), Kevin Grace (Editor), Frank O'Connor (Editor), Editors at 343 Industries Halo: Evolutions' short stories act like stepping stones to The Forerunner Saga. When humanity expanded beyond the safety of Earth to new stars and horizons, they never dreamed what dangers they would encounter there. When the alien juggernaut known as the Covenant declared holy war upon the fragile human empire, milli... more »ons of lives were lost -- but, millions of heroes rose to the challenge. In such a far-reaching conflict, not many of the stories of these heroes, both human and alien, have a chance to become legend. This collection holds eleven stories that dive into the depths of the vast Halo universe, not only from the perspective of those who fought and died to save humanity, but also those who vowed to wipe humanity out of existence.
