"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'm a huge fan of Halo's story, I've read every single one of the books but haven't gotten to read Cryptum.

Is it worth it?

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Yes. A good read and it gives good insight to the Forerunner as well.

Offcourse it is.

It's a brilliant book in my opinion but it's slow at the end.

I hope you haven't looked at the spoilers,if you didn't then prepare to be mindblowened.

If you don't want to miss a book thats easily top 3 material in the series: YES BUY IT!

It might be a bit of a confusing read at times, but it drops some huge canon-bombs in its second half and sheds a lot of light and insight into the Forerunners plans.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

Some of my friends had a hard time with the first few chapters, but just keep chuggin' along and you'll be glad you did.

We are all going to get banned aren't we?

I hate people asking if they should by a book.

If you want to learn the lore buy every book no questions asked, the reprints and artistic books are the ones you ask if you should buy.

Yes. Especially since two more books are coming out in that saga. Don't wanna fall behind.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Nah, just read a summary.

Actually... I'll sell you my copy...
