A few days old,but doesn't matters.

That cover art is intresting,it's as if it says..The Elite and ODST look at the glassed surface remembering their past war between eachother,but now they have to live in peace or murder eachother.I bet that many of races will have to work together to fight this "ancient evil" from Halo 4 that will possible make an appearance in this book.

That cover art says alot of things.

Can't wait for it.

ODST: "There used to be grass here."

Elite: "Ya, sorry about that."

Reach for Halo!

HALO: GLASSLANDS will follow-up the events and characters from Halo: Ghosts of Onyx in the wake of the final events of Halo 3.

well there is more to come from the crytpum series too...I believe it is a triolgy

EDIT:
OMG it is about the end of halo 3. Maybe we will learn where master cheif is and how he is doing. plus maybe some explanations about the legendary planet. OMG OMG OMG. I cant wait. i thought they would never tell this tale.

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

Finally! Cant wait!

what really? Hmm i just saw it on 343's website now and didn't see past threads.

And yeah i agree with you about the cover art, its feels like their's a big challenge facing both of them.

i too, am really excited for it, I've been waiting along time.

EDIT: it was supposed to go to @ hotshot revan II but when i submitted it it was much later

- Dragon Ball/Z/GT and it's merchandise are awesome.
- All "abriged" parodies are hilarious.
- Humanity, as a whole, is stupid.
- I have asperger's syndrome
- This is the best used 20 seconds of your life

I like Karen Traviss, but Eric Nylund should be the one writing this.

Topics aren't dead, they're just missing in action. Well, until the option to reply is taken out. Then they're really dead.

I like Call of Duty and Gears of War, AND Halo. Why must everyone else like only one or the other?

Can't wait! Loved Karen Traviss's work on the Republic Commando series for Star Wars, looking forward to her bringing that same character depth over to Halo.

Another book? That makes, what, 12 known Halo books?

I agree. It's going to be weird reading about Blue Team from a different author.

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Eric Nylund isn't the only one who can write Halo novels guys, can we get over that already? I don't even know if Blue Team is going to be in this book.

...It was stated it's following up on the characters and events from Ghosts of Oynx. How would it NOT have Blue Team in the book?

Judging by the other authors' material the books that came after Nylund were pretty terrible with the exceptions of Bear's Cryptum and the Evolution set.

Forklifts never die. They're just missing in Forge.

Only problem I have with this is the Elite's mandibles. The mandibles look really strange.

Don't complain! The more Canon the better! Star Wars had hundreds of known books.

It should be a good book. Karen Traviss wrote the Gears of War novels, which were really good.

Why wouldn't you want new Halo books?

Enjoy what you have and live on.

Personally, I think this book will be actually good since she wrote Gears of War, Halo: Evolution part on Human weakness and some Star Wars which it is good book, by the way.

And, yes it will explain what happened to Blue Team with Dr. Halsey, SPARTAN-IIIs and SPCO Mendez in Onyx, and possibly detailing about their escape from Dyson Sphere world (I might be wrong, someone can correct me, although) among new characters/villains were revealed.

My theory: Based on cover art, it seems that Humans may once fight against Elites again as they never forgotten that Elites were once contributors to human genocide in Human-Covenant War or alliance to work together to defeat ancient enemy such as Flood or Precursors or maybe Forerunners.
