New from #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Traviss Halo: Glasslands. The start of an all-new trilogy in the New York Times bestselling "Halo" series!
The New York Times bestselling "Halo" series, based on the hugely successful Halo videogames franchise for the Xbox 360, has sold millions of copies, part of a global phenomenon that has dominated the science fiction landscape over the last decade. Macmillan Audio and Tor Books have proudly partnered with Microsoft and 343 Industries to publish print and audio editions of the stories set in this iconic universe, and we are delighted to announce the publication of the most-anticipated novel in the series yet: the first in a new trilogy from #1 New York Times bestselling author, screenwriter, and comics author Karen Traviss, that takes readers and gamers through the chaos of the post-HALO 3 Universe. Fans and critics alike have eagerly awaited the next Halo title on audio!
HALO: GLASSLANDS (Macmillan Audio, December 2011, $39.99) begins one the Covenant has collapsed after a long, brutal war that saw billions slaughtered on Earth and her colonies. But though the fighting has stopped, humanity's war is far from over.
The UNSC's feared and secretive Office of Naval Intelligence recruits Kilo-Five, a team of ODSTs, a Spartan, and a diabolical AI to accelerate the Sangheili insurrection. Meanwhile, across the galaxy, a woman thought to have died on Reach is very much alive. Chief scientist Dr. Catherine Halsey broke every law in the book in order to create the Spartans, and now she's broken more to save them. Marooned with Chief Mendez and a Spartan team in a Forerunner slipspace bubble hidden in the destroyed planet Onyx, she finds that the shield world has been guarding an ancient secret – a treasure trove of Forerunner technology that will change everything for the UNSC and mankind.
As Kilo-Five joins the hunt for Halsey, humanity's violent past begins to catch up with all of them as disgruntled colony Venezia has been biding its time to strike at Earth, and its most dangerous terrorist has an old, painful link with both Halsey and Kilo-Five that will test everyone's loyalty to the limit!
Narrated by the very talented Euan Morton, who is also the voice of the iconic original Dune by Frank Herbert, the excitement of this edition of the HALO story comes to life!
