About this listen

An original novel set in the Halo universe—based on the New York Times bestselling video game series!

October 2559. With the galaxy in the suffocating grip of a renegade artificial intelligence, another perilous threat has quietly emerged in the shadows: the Keepers of the One Freedom, a fanatical and merciless Covenant splinter group, has made its way beyond the borders of the galaxy to an ancient Forerunner installation known as the Ark. Led by an infamous Brute named Castor, the Keepers intend to achieve what the Covenant, in all its might, failed to: activate Halo and take the last steps on the path of the Great Journey into transcendence.

But unknown to Castor and his new, unexpected ally on the Ark, there are traitors to the cause in their midst—namely the Ferrets, composed of Office of Naval Intelligence operative Veta Lopis and her young team of Spartan-IIIs, who have been infiltrating the Keepers to lay the groundwork for Castor’s assassination. But with ONI’s field operations now splintered and cut off by the Guardian threat, Veta’s original mission has suddenly and dramatically escalated in scope. There’s simply no choice or fallback plan—either the Ferrets somehow stop the Keepers or the galaxy faces an extinction-level event….

Definitely one of the best halo books ever released. Narrator does a great job on this one. So much better than Shadows of Reach

There's no other universe like Halo.

It's a fiction which walks a compelling line between majestic space opera and classic military sci-fi, with a history of strong if not outstanding novels despite its roots in the video gaming world, and Denning really gets what makes it special to its hardcore followers. He has a strong understanding of the technical lore, military jargon and world-building that characterizes it, and uses that to create an atmosphere of authenticity and immersion that makes his stories feel truly at home in the Halo universe. This novel continues the story of his characters from prior works and brings them into contact with some legendary figures and places from the Halo universe. If you like Halo and its extended fiction, it's a worthy stepping stone on the grand path of its many interlinking narratives, and well worth the listen.

The reader did particular good voices for some of the core characters and was always clear, which is especially commendable due to some of the acronym-laden or otherwise arcane and opaque terminology the Halo universe is prone to.

Another excellent Halo offering from Denning.

Fantastic story to complete this saga. The story flowed fluently and left me wanting more. Unfortunately the performance was difficult to ignore. All voices except Vadar were done poorly and made it difficult to visualise the characters. i would suggest Simon Brick conduct the next book as he is able to be distinguishable with all human and alien characters.

Great story, Poor performance

The story was good despite it being a plot that we have had twice before. The problem is the narration is so uncomfortable to listen to. She puts on this odd sensual tone while ‘voicing’ alien characters. Really ruined the whole experience for me which is a shame because it is a pretty good book. I unfortunately don’t have a lot of time to read books however I would suggest getting a hard copy of this book.

Really really Weird narration
