Tor Books has announced more Halo novels. Yay reading! Karen Traviss will be penning the new adventures in a multi-book deal that will explore the events of the Halo universe after Halo 3 starting with the aftermath of the events that took place in Halo: Ghosts of Onyx.
Karen is no stranger to the Halo books as she wrote the short story "Human Weakness" for Halo: Evolutions. Plus she's also responsible for writing bestselling novels set in the Star Wars and Gears of War universes.
As a Halo fanboy, I'm looking forward to the new books. I loved the first few but the last couple (Halo: Contact Harvest and Halo: The Cole Protocol) were pretty bad as they were about people that didn't really matter. More focus on the Spartans, please!

I don't give a crap about Halo, but BEARS.
I'll buy them anyway though, I'm a fool for this stuff.
i'll end up snatching these up anyway cause i'm a sucker for halo literature.
In my opinion Harvest was a brilliantly written book. I have read the first 5 or 6 books and I did enjoy the first one by Nylund the most, but I enjoyed all of them very much. I will read any thing Halo as long as the story reveals new things and the author is decent, and Harvest made both categories for me.
