Hey Everybody I just want to ask you guys what your opinions are on the Forerunner Book series before I go and pick it up.

I would like to keep gaining more knowledge about the Halo universe and would like to know if reading them would be a good way to do that thanks.

So yeah are the worth getting?

More or less. They also provide really great backstory, if thats your thing.

Oh, you want more knowledge! A resounding yes should answer your query

I would also pick up the others by, I think, Karen Traviss, they provide a more modern setting with modern events that pertain just as much to the Halo 4 setting as Greg Bear's books.

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

I'd say that they help define the Halo that is to come, more than the Halo that is, so if it's knowing more about the future--through gazing to the pasts--you're looking for..

And as books go, standalone, they're both quite good. I liked Cryptum more than Primordium, but I've seen quite some who did the opposite.
