Really screws with the plot of Halo.
In the Halo: First Strike (FS) book, there is a time anomaly that allows the MC to rescue some Spartans.
The Pillar of Autumn (POA) in the Book Halo: The Flood gets to Halo on Sept. 19, 2552. But the end of Halo: FS the date is Sept. 13. 2552. A full 6 days before the POA arrives at Halo. So it is possible that the MC could use the faster Covenant engines that was put into the Earth ship to go to Halo 04 before the POA actually arrives. Maybe before the Covenant actually arrive. Is this the same Halo that Bungie has mentioned MC going to.
But the time anomaly cause inconsistinces.
Halo: The Flood - Page 28 - Sept. 19, 2552 - A Elite by the name of Isna 'Nosolee boarded the POA as a Ossoona, a spy. Ossoona's was used for multiple reasons but one was to find the coordinates of Earth. So at this time They still didn't know Earth's location.
Halo: FS - Sept. 13, 2552 - MC with help of the Spartans destroyed the Covenant invasion fleet, getting prepared to invade Earth. Which shows that the Covenant knew the location of Earth prior to Sept. 13, 2552. So what was Isna 'Nossolee doing?
