The Fall of Reach- its a prelude to Halo 1. The Flood- its a storyline of Halo 1, basically an in-game dialogue. really good, both of them. im pretty sure they have the three book set at www.amazon.com

No, none yet. Not even word on one yet, either.

I was wondering if the third book, First Strike, is the story of Halo 2 or the story leading up to halo 2?

Leading up to Halo 2. It's sort of like the interim period when MC tried returning to Earth. It fills you in to the Covenant's huge buildup just before the events of Halo 2.

gaaaahahahaahahahaha at the near-end of THE FALL OF REACH, mc, linda and james go destroy the CIRCUMFERENCES naval database, while the others ie.kelly, joshua etc. go planetside on REACH to protect the Orbital MAC (magnetic accelertor cannons, the most powerful unsc non-nuclear weapon) , FIRST STRIKE is the story about the planetside spartans and what happens to them. am i the only one who's read the books. after the during that time, all the spartans but the mc die. he goes back to the pillar of autumn, cortana finds a encrypted covenant message, finds out its similar to the stuff he found when he boarded the covenant ship in 2525, also on sigma octanus IV. she checks whether it complies with cole protocol, it does, , and by that time reach is destroyed, they make a slipstream jump to that area, and they find halo. the next book, when they are on halo, is a tie-in the the halo 1 game. there are no halo2 books yet.

The second book is "The Flood" which is based on Halo: Combat Evolved's storyline. And as for further books, a person in another forum has something stickied about his writeup of the next unofficial book. But Eric Nylund(He took the harder job than Dietz, and wrote the first and third book) is trying to get publishing writes for the next Halo novel, which will probably be based on Halo 2.

First Strike is far better than The Flood.

The flood is simply a recap narrative of Halo: Combat Evolved. You know that story. Unless you read First Strike, you won't know the interim story between Halo and Halo 2.

But I like the writing style in First Strike better, too. The Flood seems like I could have written it...
