A HALO INFINITE STORY
December 2559. Humanity has its back against the wall after the United Nations Space Command flagship Infinity drops out of slipspace into a devastating ambush launched by the Banished. As this fierce enemy alliance seeks to claim a mysterious object hidden within the ancient Forerunner construct known as Zeta Halo, the surviving UNSC corps finds itself compromised and its leadership out of reach—with remaining personnel forced to abandon ship and take their chances on the fractured, unpredictable surface of the Halo ring.
Now survival in this strange, alien environment—whether for Spartan super-soldiers or those who never thought they would see the battle up close—is measured day to day against a relentless and brutal adversary that always has the upper hand. Desperation grows, but the will to keep on fighting and enduring no matter the odds is never in doubt…even as the Banished seek to unleash a frightening new enemy that could doom them all…

Love every bit
Loved seeing a different perspective on the UNSC’s struggle to survive on Zeta Halo.
5/5 Great Read
Some of the best halo writing in recent years.
Not going to learn anything new
This book doesn’t add in ant of the story you’re missing from playing Halo Infinite. Basically just fills you in on some of the characters you meet in the campaign, but still no mention of Captain Lasky, cortana, how the halo got fractured, or any of your questions about the 6 month gap.
I’d recommend skipping if you’re looking for answers.
Otherwise it’s a somewhat slow story about some spartans and marines walking around the same alpine area as the campaign.
