Halo: Envoy

Written by Tobias S. Buckell

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!

It has been six years since the end of the Covenant War...and yet on the planet Carrow, a world on the edge of the Joint Occupation Zone, a decisive new battle suddenly erupts. Human colonists and the alien Sangheili have already been living a tension-filled coexistence in this place, with Unified Earth Government envoy Melody Azikiwe attempting to broker a lasting peace between their two species. But as civil war now engulfs the Sangheili, Melody must act on an additional covert assignment courtesy of the Office of Naval Intelligence: free the SPARTAN-IIs known as Gray Team, held in stasis since the end of the war by a cunning Elite fleetmaster consumed with vengeance. And none can anticipate the ongoing violence leading to the discovery of an even greater, unstoppable threat—one hidden for eons below the surface of the planet...

[Nick Gorman · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Enjoyed it, but there's a glitch in the audio file about halfway through chapter 25 that makes you skip to 26 and miss a key plot point (it can be inferred, but the details are missing)

[David Gavin · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]
