Halo: Contact Harvest by Joseph Staten

4.0

Exciting story about humanity's first contact with the Covenant, and the deadly first battles of the war. There's also a great b-plot about a Grunt and an Engineer that humanizes the aliens of the Covenant, reminding us that there's actual characters on the other side outside of the Prophets and everyone's favorite Arbiter. And it's by Joe Staten, one of the lead writers on the Bungie-era Halo games, so you know there's some great lore in here. Check it out, even if you're not a mega-fan of the games.
