Halo: Bad Blood

Written by Matt Forbeck

Narrated by Scott Brick

An original full-length novel set in the Halo universe and based on the New York Times bestselling video game series!

Just hours following their climactic battle on the Forerunner planet Genesis, the Spartans of Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris find themselves running for their lives from the malevolent machinations of the now-renegade artificial intelligence Cortana. But even as they attempt to stay one step ahead, trouble seems to find Spartan Edward Buck no matter where he turns.

A secret mission enacted by the Office of Naval Intelligence could possibly help turn the tide, and has Buck reluctantly agreeing to reform his old team, Alpha-Nine. Because if the band is really getting back together for this one, that means everybody—including the Spartan who Buck never wants to see again, the one who committed the ultimate betrayal of trust…

Loved it. Nice dive in into Alpha 9 and tie in with the oncoming Halo6

[Donald Beckworth · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This is nearly the 20th Halo audiobook I've listened to. So far I've enjoyed every one of them.
