You know what would suck...? If Ghosts of Onyx was just about Halo 2. Fall of Reach was before Halo Combat Evolved, The Flood was about Halo Combat Evolved, and First Strike was after Combat Evolved, and before Halo 2... If it keeps this up, wouldn't this book be about Halo 2? And the next book is between Halo 2 and 3... And the last book is about Halo 3... It makes some sense right...?

Send me out with a bang...

Is it odd that I find this news like this the most exciting. Heh that's how much I loved Eric's novels. I can't wait to finally know what happened to the last Spartans, Dr. Halsey etc...

Not that movie news or game news isn't exciting... It's all leveled out pretty close.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

Can't wait, finally another novel to read!

Hmmm, Ghosts of Coral did sound a bit nicer on the tongue as someone said. But Ghosts of Onyx will do nicely as well. I wonder what significance onyx has. I remember somwhere in the Bible saying Onyx was a metal found near the Euphrates and Tigris rivers. These rivers are supposedly located near the "cradle of civilization" or rather the birthplace oh humanity. Soemething to do with the location of the Ark or the origins of the Foreunners maybe?Meh, It's all speculation, on to Wiki! I am very excited though because the novels are well written and not just pale imitations of the games. ^_^

I kill jokes just like I kill my enemies on Halo 3. By the dozens.

this is excellent news . i have been waiting for this book but was unsure of when it would come out. i have one question though and i mean no disrespect to bungie, microsoft or Mr Nylund. i was just wondering if anyone had even looked at the book that sir brilliant had been working on for the halo 2/3 book? i got to read the first dozen chapters plus some of the grunt stories and i have to say that it was a masterpiece. he captured a very probable out come and it was inspiring and interesting to read. i was very disappointed to see that the website that he had all his story on had been taken off. it should have been allowed to stay. we have all thought out probable outcomes for this next book but sir brilliant has a knack for excellent writing as does Mr. Nylund. like i said, no offense. i have read the other 3 books multiple times and i have boughten them all too but i think that sir brilliant should be able to atleast post his story. well all other things aside i hope that this new book is even better than the previous ones. way to go bungie!
