I read every Halo novel and became the Master Chief of loneliness | Unraveled

Halo Infinite is coming out, it's been almost five years since the last mainline Halo game and wow, I've never played a Halo game before. I have no idea what's going on in these games, but Halo is one of the biggest video game franchises. of all time, so you should probably know what it is. Luckily, Halo Infinity is coming out on the next generation of Xbox, which means I have plenty of time to catch up. There are 15 Halo games if you include all the spin-offs, but honestly. The main games will give you the story without you missing out on a ton of lore.

Each main game takes 10 hours to complete, that's 50 straight hours of gameplay. Today I tell you

ing all the Halo novels and then give you a book report on all of them.

This isn't even all. Halo novels I'm still waiting for some to arrive some are digital only and there are some that haven't been released yet because they are still being written here is a list of all the currently announced halo novels depending on how long the

read

is. adventure shots I might have to add to this list, each of these 28 or so novels is considered canon, which means there are about 10,000 pages of juicy canon information, explosive action sequences, and beloved characters I don't know about nothing. The average American reads about 12 books. per year the average is four.

I don't have books a year, but under Pizza Hut's Bookit program, if my school administrator signs me up and signs me up every time I reach my novel reading goal, I'll receive a free certificate for completing a personal novel. pan pizza from pizza hut pizza hut is not sponsoring this video, but if I can find one that is open and ignore the fact that I am a 25 year old man, I will buy a personal pant pizza, so I will read the whole thing. These books, I guess, and then I don't know, summarize the information for you.

Look, honestly, most detangles make me bite off more than I can chew, but I've usually chewed that bite off before I start filming. I'm literally starting this process today, so I don't even know how this video will turn out. My current plan is to film it in chunks for however long it takes and then I'll do a little recap, but all that's left to do now is start reading. the first novel in the halo series the fall of scope prologue oh 500 hours february 12, 2535 military calendar lambda serpentis and everyone lived happily ever after wow friends it's been a year since I started this great journey but I'm happy to say that it's done I've read all the Halo novels, so a lot has changed since July 30, 2019.

I no longer have a mustache and I'm also packed with knowledge about the Halo universe, but before we get to the book report , here is the updated list of the 31 halo novels I read, these two short stories were eventually collected in the compilation Halo Fractures, so there are actually 29 of them, you may have also noticed a halo comic on the table the original session that was just prepared, ignore it in my skyrim. book report i read 571 pages for this i read 10,920 which is more if you listened to a continuous stream of halo audiobooks it would take you almost 13 whole days without sleep just halo but i didn't do that instead i did this here is a timeline of when I finished each Halo book before comparing.

Here's a timeline of all the other books I read this year. I didn't read any other books this year, but it was 12 months well spent because it gave me time to fully digest this. information and now I can present to you what you need to know before infinite halo it all starts with the

master

chief

well okay then it's not like that technically it starts with catherine halsey and the oni I'll explain the insurrection no let's start from the beginning you know Which might tell you everything you need to know before Halo Infinite, but doing so succinctly wouldn't do you any favors, you wouldn't want that anyway, when I scheduled a short two-hour meeting with my partner. -workers to do a quick review of the halo novels, they kept getting mad at me because I needed to go off on a tangent so I could tell them the juicy stuff only in book seven or eight, these all come from the unsc side so the concept of video games as art it has moved on to the people, he is beginning to understand what you mean by not being able to talk about this without doing strange things, yes, the great knowledge these books gave me came at a price, I have become so powerful and intelligent that talking to my coworkers about halo is like trying to explain sha fujikawa's impulses to an ungodly person.

I have become the

master

chief

of halo novels. This might sound like a bold statement if you think the Master Chief is just a green guy. who shoots well, but thanks to these halo novels I know that the master chief is actually a green man who shoots well because of a tragic backstory and you learn that in the first halo novel I ended up with the range drop. I did a video verification. -Insects right after finishing each novel to record my instinctive reactions. This lasted 30 minutes. I have a feeling these Halo novels are going to be like a super cheap daisy.

I'm not going to gain anything from it and, in fact, I might be. worse after the fact, but it's tasty and I can close it quickly in the year 2517, the united nations space command wanted super soldiers to quell the human insurrection, so they turned to the office of naval intelligence and doctor catherine halsey, who kidnapped six-year-old Flash clones and placed the kidnapped children in a training camp while the Flash clones were returned to the parents and died slowly and agonizingly. This fun little summer camp was called the Spartan 2 program. The kidnapped children trained until they were teenagers and as a gift. for their 14th birthday they received biological augmentations that killed 30 of them and permanently maimed another 12.

That's a tough age to buy into this left them with 33 terrifyingly powerful and militarily indoctrinated teenagers ready to go out and kill some humans. One of these teenagers was a Spartan. john 117, who would later be promoted to the rank of master chief, but just as these teenagers begin to put down the human insurrection, knock, knock, who's there, it's a moral deus ex machina called the pact, they're a group of aliens who want kill all the humans and the Spartans' job is to stop them. My experience with science fiction has led me to believe that when you start a story this way, at the end there will be a big twist where the humans who abused the kidnapped children would be the real bad guys, but this book. subverts my expectations by not doing that its extremely black and white alien bad unsc good if you were looking for shades of gray you should have checked out romance novels.

My biggest emotional response was the fact that the Spartan John 117 was so obviously abused. He becomes this killing machine and he's just okay with it because that's all he knows. He's happiest when someone has given him an obvious target, something obvious that he needs to kill and it's heartbreaking, but I don't think he's meant to be. heartbreaking if there is anything to learn from this book it is the master chief's origin story, he was just a child in the colonies until circumstances plus several years of military indoctrination and biological modification turned him into a hero, it's hard not to draw a parallel between your experiences and mine because I went through a grueling series of books and emerged stronger than ever.

I don't think anyone knew that Halo would become one of the biggest game series of all time and this book reflects that writing is okay if a little under the nose was one of the few places John considered a Except for the pact, your home wouldn't fall uh-oh, John and that's all you need to know about the fall of the reach. Well, just a little tangent, I have to address one thing. that comes up every time you talk about the halo novels so here is the master chief suit don't jerk him off there is a fake image from a halo novel and it is based on a drilling tweet but it is actually not true if you are reading halo novels would you know that Spartan 2's biological augmentations do something like chemical castration that destroys their libidos okay that's it sorry I'm moving on I just spent over 600 words talking about a book that doesn't I can.

Do that for all of them if I want to reach my goal of telling you what you need to know before Halo Infinity, so I'll limit myself to 50 words per synopsis from now on. I love the ocean, but I love Halo more. read the flood on vacation follow the plot of the first game the master chief explodes a halo after encountering the guilty spark and the flood the parts with the master chief were boring the other parts were good if you like halo novels that's one little pina colada joke The song First Strike shows that some Spartans survived the fall of Reach and fills in the gaps between Halo 1 and 2.

Not much happens. Ghosts of Onyx follows Kurt, perhaps the most interesting Spartan of them all. He was put in charge of creating the three Spartans which was another terrible military program, but this time they used contact harvesting rules for orphans. This book was much more interesting and better written and also much hornier. It shows the first contact with the covenant and explains why they are killing all the humans and there is a beautiful beast story. Between a Huragok and an Ungoy, Avery Johnson also explains that there is something in this book that these other books have not attempted to do, that is, to do a more nuanced history in the carbon protocol.

Team Spartan Gray attempts to destroy the map information that would lead the Covenant to Earth. 5 books and 250 words, let's keep going after a little tangent, the first five books were published during the original trilogy, but starting with the Cole protocol, the novels focused on characters that didn't matter much to the video games from here on out. They were no longer just making a series of games, they were expanding a universe. The next novels I was going to read were trilogies written by well-established science fiction authors. If the first six books were first-person shooters, then the precursor saga was a text.

Tactical RPG based and for that it may be a little difficult to fit each one into just 50 words, but I'll try halo kryptum, everything you thought you knew about halo, I want you to throw it in the trash 100,000 years before halo, a precursor called born stellar makes eternally lasting hires two ancient humans named chakas and rizer for an adventure and they run into a promethean named didact and that's just the first few chapters this trilogy is like dune level sci-fi it's as dense as hell it This trilogy sets up the antagonist of Halo 4 and explains the creation of the Halos, which are those superstructure weapons of mass destruction designed to kill all sentient life in the galaxy just to stop the parasitic alien known as the Flood, which seems a bit petty and that's all I'll do.

To say about this trilogy and also these fun little tidbits, you know the prophets of the covenant, the sanshiyum, they existed alongside the forerunners and are described in this book as an intelligent and beautiful race obsessed with eternal sexuality and youth, the sanshi, you used to be so fucking sexy and 343 guilty spark, that shitty orb that shows up in the first game and tries to get the master chief to shoot the halo ring that used to be chakas, that ancient human i mentioned real quick, poor guy got He went on a quest with a precursor basically as a freelance job and then ended up with his brain trapped in a roomba for a hundred thousand years, that's tough dude, okay, really, I'm done talking about that trilogy and with that my first nine halo books and my indoctrination into the halo universe was complete only 20 more after reading nine books, you might think that i finally have enough context to tell you what you need to know before halo infinity, but you're wrong, the first nine books They are just a training ground Now that Master Chief I has completed his training books It was time for him to enter the field More books I prepared myself for the next trilogy but nothing could prepare me for what happened with Karen's kilo 5 saga travis karen travis you did it, you made me like a halo trilogy books I really 100% enjoyed reading this trilogy and it was hard to take.

I didn't start this project expecting to enjoy doing it and that's why I'm going to give myself a little more than 50 words to talk about it. Follow this trilogy. an oni team called kilo 5 as they deal with the aftermath of the human pact war now that the pact is in ruins. Kilo 5's job is to arm religious fundamentalist Sangili dissidents to destabilize their government. ItI admit, from the beginning I was like Hmm, a CIA-style group trying to cause unrest in an enemy nation by financing terrorism. I've never heard of that happening in real life. It's a joke.

I've heard about it in real life. Should I have been worried about this given plot? Halo's track record in handling morally questionable military missions with absolutely nuance and tacks, but Karen Travis knocked it out of the park. The leader of Kilo 5, Sarin Osman, had a very bad 14th birthday because instead of becoming Spartan 2, she was mutilated by biological augmentations. and despises catherine halsey because another member of kilo 5 is the full-fledged spartan naomi her father

became

one of the most important leaders of the colonial insurrection radicalized by the conspiracy that the government kidnapped his daughter and replaced her with a clone they made to make this trilogy finally explore the ramifications of the story established in the first novel and rules, I would say more about this trilogy, but if there is a set of books, I suggest you read these, so I'm not going to spoil them and to To make up for that long summary, I'll be very brief with the The next seven books, Halo Evolutions One and Two, are compilations of short stories that develop the Halo universe.

Not much happens in them, but these are my favorites. The broken circle holds books, the beginning and the end of the pact of sanshi you and sang healy's perspectives, which is great, but I read it in one day while I was stuck in Laguardia, so I didn't like it very much. Halo New Blood is just a lovely John written from Edward Buck's perspective as he becomes a Spartan four, but here's the twist: he's not a child, incremental progress. halo hunters in the dark is a good book the humans in sang healy band together and go to the ark to stop the halo rings from shooting its like halo 3 2. the last light starts as a crime fall it would be great to read a crime drama in this strange sci-fi world and it didn't end up disappointing me, but that's my problem.

Halo Fractures was another compilation that included a lot of good short stories and that's another 10 books short of the ones I read. In two months I was going through these books like the master chief shooting flood waves in the library. I was behind the wheel of the boar of literature. We only have 10 more books left to cover, so I think I've earned myself a bit of a tangent. Halo will have a television show. Very little is known about it at this time, but there is one small tidbit that piqued my interest. Baking Woodbine will play a character named soren066.

Soren only appears in a short story called Outcast that he has chosen. being a spartan 2 but just like saren osmond is harmed by biological augmentations and is eliminated from the program because of this, he slowly converts to insurrectionary ideologies and leaves the military. Soren's story is incredible, but it's buried within a collection of short stories that I can guarantee very few Halo fans have read, and yet he's one of the only named characters we know on this show and that makes me wonder who is making this show for me. This Halo program is being made specifically for me.

I'm going to see it. this show because the universe is incredibly interesting to me and because I'll be able to watch it and say ha, I know who Sauron is. I read a short story about him and that is a great, powerful feeling that takes me to a smaller second. tangent into this bigger let me write for the halo show here's why you should know why you have an obligation to let me write for the halo show number one I already know everything about the universe so I don't have to waste time looking for things top two, what else am I going to do with all this information?

It will stop being useful to me as soon as I finish this video. three as a true fan, I know more about this universe than you, I have the right to control this story, how dare I? you ignore me i'm a real fan and four i don't have anyone else to talk to about this i don't have anyone else to talk to about halo i don't have friends who want to hear how hot arena triume used to be no one wants to hang out with me because no I can go 20 minutes without explaining how the Master Chief suit doesn't jerk him off, these books have turned me into a Halo story machine, and in return, I'm alienated from people. around me I can't even connect with these nerds my closest friend is the halo universe and now I have to say goodbye and no one cares untangled yes, there were unfortunate doors that opened and could not be closed again, it was better not to open them in first of all is a quote from halo mortal dictator if this project has made me the master chief it is logical that it ends this way these books talk about john 1 17 as this legendary savior, but in reality he is just a forced automaton that connects better with Cortana his vocaloid waifu than with the humans around him and now Cortana has turned against all of humanity leaving John desperately alone how does he keep fighting when no one understands him? is happiest when someone has given him an Obvious Goal I started this project with the goal of telling you what you need to know before Halo Infinity but it turns out that goal isn't as obvious after finishing these books, but we've gotten this far so We might as well end the fight. smoke and shadow a savior named ryan forge tries to find his father a space adventure any envoy is a book about diplomacy and features the sharkoi who only existed in concept art because they were cut from the original halo but does anyone care about that except me? retribution vada lopez is back you remember her and her favorite team of 3 spartans from last light and the short story unnecessary truth of course it's not onyx legacy it's a teen drama and it's fun but they take some strange decisions to turn a child into the The protagonist as Chief Mendes is flippant with confidential information that makes no sense to his character and also they are not even protecting the space portal that Zulendama used to escape from the Bad Blood sequel of New Blood , the blood is bad now, born in battle and meridian.

Divides are young adult novels that do a good job of characterizing the toll the Covenant War took on normal human colonists, but if you don't care about that, there's also a Spartan and if you only care about a Spartan, then The Silent Storm and oblivion are for you the master chief you are the protagonist and wow shoot some people and finally halo renegades is a smoke and shadow sequel but it's more of a guilty sparks redemption arc story. It's nice to see a human hallway monitor turned robot find his humanity again. and that's it, I read all the halo novels and gave you a report on all of them, what I have left. the master chief of the halo novels.

I know everything there is to know about the halo universe, but I'm still so alone I can't. I don't even begin to tell you what you need to know about Halo Infinity because it's impossible to compress an ever-expanding universe into a few short chapters, except I guess that's what these authors did. Many of these books, especially my favorites. These aren't events with far-reaching consequences that impacted Halo canon; in fact, you could probably skip most of these books and still understand video games very well. Most people do that, and judging by the new Halo Infinity trailer, the game seems to focus on a lot about the Banished, which is a group that is important in Halo Wars 2 but is never seen and barely mentioned in novels, so screw me, but that doesn't mean these stories don't matter just because one character doesn't save everything. the human race every other day doesn't mean they don't matter not everyone can be master chief i certainly can't be but maybe i don't have to be maybe i can just be brian or maybe i could be chakas chakas was dragged into this universe that doesn't he completely understood only because he thought it would be fun to do it at work and then he gets so into it that he ends up losing all of his humanity and becoming a guilty spark and then he destroys all sentient life in the galaxy God, am I going to do that? ?

The thing about guilty spark chakas is that it straddles the divide between video games and the rest of the expanded universe. He plays a very important role in video games, but also. He starts out as a barely sentient macguffin and could have stayed that way for me, but then Greg Bear wrote a trilogy that gave him 100,000 years of backstory that distanced him from his species and then Kelly Gay wrote a novel that allowed him to rediscover his guilty humanity. she might have been forever changed by her experiences, but she was able to reconnect with humans and even make new friends.

This book compressed an eternal being with a universe of history into a person with a history. A universe only matters if it's full of Characters you connect with, so if you want to know what's really important before Halo Infinity, forget the Precursors and 100,000 years of history, all you really need to know is that a child named John was stolen from his family and turned into a super soldier. and now the only partner who has always been by his side has turned against him, he's just a guy fighting for what he believes in against the person who betrayed his trust and that's all you need to know before entering infinite halo and also that his suit doesn't jerk him off with my personal pizzas Hello, yes, I contacted Pizza Hut Corporate.

I have a quick question about your Bookit program. I'm looking to get 29 personal pizzas. No, I am not enrolled in I. I am 26 years old. Would it change anything if I told you that they are Halo novels like Halo the game yes, Halo the game no, the suit doesn't masturbate him, it's a common mistake, this makes it all worth it?
