Publisher's Summary
An original novel set in the Halo universe—based on the New York Times bestselling video game series!
Stripped of armor, might, and memory, the legendary Forerunner warrior known as the Didact was torn from the physical world following his destructive confrontation with the Master Chief and sent reeling into the mysterious depths of a seemingly endless desert wasteland. This once powerful and terrifying figure is now a shadow of his former self—gaunt, broken, desiccated, and alone. But this wasteland is not as barren as it seems. A blue light glints from a thin spire in the far distance…
Thus begins the Didact’s great journey—the final fate of one of the galaxy’s most enigmatic and pivotal figures.

Finally some good halo story telling!
As a hard core halo nerd and bungie fan since halo ce launched in 2001, I have to say this book does not disappoint especially in the LORE. I enjoyed the audio version of this more so then reading the novel itself. The voice acting was fantastic and helped made the narrative more digestable, Having the guy who voiced the Didactnarrate this novel was the best choice they could have done.
What you think you know will be changed is the best way to describe the books way of teeling the story from a perspectivei never thought we would get. I would recommend playing halo 4 (I would say play halo 5 too, but it's the worst campaign in the entire franchise so far, but it would help if you are new to halo, you have been warned) and reading the dark horse comics on the events between halo 4 and 5.
I give it full stars, and I enjoyed this book just as much as I enjoyed broken circles and the Kilo trilogy (Cole protocol is good for the soul as well).
