      October 22, 2009: The halo encyclopedia is the first comprehensive guide to bungie studios award winning Halo universe. The book reveals information previously only available in the top secret halo story bible. If you are a die hard Halo fan this is a great book, though some of the information you may already know I gaurantee that there is some dont. For instance ever wonder who the two mysterious foreunners conversing on the halo 3 terminals were? this book holds the answer. It also answers age old questions like how the

      the humans survived the first detonation of the halo array, plus the book

      sheds some light on the famous spartan mark 1's. The book also has a comprehensive history on the Covenant, The forerunners, And the humans it

      also has some brief information on the possible link between humans and forerunners. The book does an incredibly good job at making the Halo uni-

      verse seem real. All in all if your a die hard Halo fan i recommend you c-

      heck this out. Its also a great gift for a Halo fan. Any Halo fan will get

      a kick out of this book it goes so far as to even show the individual rou-

      nds for ever gun. A great guide, Highly recommended and a good achievement

      for Mr. Buckell.
