 Halo: The Flood is by far the best book in the Halo book series. Halo: The Flood follows the events of the video game Halo: Combat Evolved. In which the events of the game are novelized and are viewed form the eyes of the main characters, Master Chief, Crotona, Captain Keyes, along with some new characters written for the book that add life to the story. It even adds for the first time, a look into the Covenant side; of the Human- Covenant War. In which William C. Dietz ends up setting the stage for Halo 2 and the Arbiter story line.
