Don't be stupid like I was! Check to see what that Forum Ninja is saying to you!

Cryptum is the best, mainly because it reveals everything about the Forerunners.

To me, only the ones by Eric Nylund matter.

The Fall of Reach

First Strike

The Ghosts of Onyx

this may sound stupid but do the extra volumes of evoulutions have separate stories or does the main evoulution just the 2 extra volumes combined?

'There is no such thing as stupid questions, but only stupid answers'.

The difference is that comparing Volume I & II to the Original Evolutions is that the book has been separated into two and adding a few additional stories to each along with new artwork in it aswell.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Because answering the OP's question is too hard without including your opinion. Why are Nylund's novels the only important ones when Contact Harvest was written by Joseph Staten and the Cole Protocol was very well written by Buckell?

The Flood wasn't bad either, the extra sections brought in some variety so it wasn't just focused on the game.

Evolutions was fantastic, as was the Graphic Novel and Cryptum - and Greg Bear is 50 times that author Nylund is.
