All things written by Eric Nylund, starting with the Fall of Reach. Avoid, like the fraking plague, the novel about CE, it is awful.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

1. The Fall of Reach (Old version, not the new one)
2. The Flood (Optional)
3. First Strike
4. Ghosts of Onyx
5. Contact Harvest
6. Cole Protocole (Optional)
7. Evolutions

I havent read Cryptum yet, so I cant say.

As most here have said, The Flood (Halo: CE in book form) was very dull, and badly written, however if you want to understand First Strike better I would still read it, just grin and bear it :P

read them by publish date so fall of reach 1st the flood 2nd first strike third and so on, and dont consider any of them optional.
