"No, Hoobla. No."
~DeeJ

I have been really into the Halo storyline and read alot of articles and other things on it but Halowiki just doesnt do it justice. I ve decided to read the books to really understand the grand story. So my question is what order should I read the books in. Keep in mind im not a big fan of reading so plz only the essential storyline.

That's simple: All of them.

1. Contact Harvest
2. The Cole Protocol
3. The Fall of Reach
4. The Flood
5. First Strike
6. Ghosts of Onyx

7. Cryptum

EDIT: The only one you wouldn't need to read is The Flood, because it is just the story of Halo CE with a few extra characters. Also, Cryptum comes before the others in the storyline, but should be read last to avoid spoilers. Cryptum doesn't really need to be read either because it isn't part of the immediate story.

For the sake of actually knowing everything there is to know both The Flood and Cryptum still need to be read...

Thanks, 7 books isnt to bad. And i will read cryptum for sure, IMO the most interesting characters in the Halo storyline is the Precursors and the Forerunners, and ive been told those are explained alot in Cryptum

idk what he is saying about current plot, cryptum is where most theories on h4 get their depth. read it after so as not to give spoilers
