I'll bet under the Dust Jacket on the actual book is a symbol.


What the heck are you talking about?

Does anyone know if there will be a soft cover version of it just like all of the other Halo novels, because if it doesn't it will look very odd in my Halo collection and will drive me OCD up the walls.

I'm collecting all of the books on the Kindle app on my android. No need to worry about book size. :D

Nice, but there is just something about a real physical book to read that appeals to a lot of people...including me!

Maybe a forerunner symbol or the symbol in your avatar.

I once heard an old man say " Years ago, i sold my trumpet for something to eat, and know i know it would be better to die of hunger."

I upload a ton of Halo clips on my YouTube channel, feel free to subscribe.

Damn, this was supposed to be released in 2010. Oh well, I can't wait until I get my hands on this one!

On a lot of Hardcover Books, when you remove the Dust Jacket there is either the title, an image, or a symbol.

Ok I see what you mean now....it was just really random because who knows what is on the actual hard cover...I thought you were trying to say that there is one or you have seen it....but yeah that would be pretty cool, a big forerunner symbol on the front!

All we gotta do is just wait a few more months until it's release. Also, good to know this thread is still going strong.

"I'm afraid of the man I'll become if I lay my life down for the people I don't even care for"

I think that because the book will reveal so much about the forerunners, the Precursors will become the prominent race that is so mysterious.

From the cover summary it looks like that the focus will be on Forerunner society and culture, not so much on the action.


Not necessarily, while it will have elements of their culture and society I still think there will be plenty of action!

This is the kind of Halo apparel you can actually wear on a date. It's that cool. Don't wear it on a first date though, unless it's one of those like, "safe" Saturday morning coffee dates. But there's zero makeout potential on those dates anyway, so who cares, really?

i can't wait for this book to release

"The measure of a man is what he does with power"-Plato

I'd like their to be a few unaswered questions in the Halo universe just to keep people guessing and drawing their own conclusions.

I want their to be mystery in the Halo universe still.

"The Emperor Protects"
"Suffer Not To Let The Unclean Live"

has there ever been a forerunner book before?
