Author Quotes/Information
- "We get to fill the story for Master Chief in between Halo 2 and 3. We get Master Chief from the end of that story to the beginning of the new one."
- "...new characters down on Earth that will allow a fresh perspective on the human level to the near holocaust that is taking place on Earth."
- "...can enjoy what they are reading without needing anything else but the book in their hand."
- "...honor the die hard fans with references and nods to the games and novels."
- "...you will see plenty of Master Chief in every issue."
- "The (American) city is an important key city to the war on Earth."
- Q:"How much of this civil war plays into your Covenant-based plot?"
A:"Not too much. It is referenced but it's not really the focus of the story."
- Q:"Will the Flood and/or Gravemind be involved? Will Cortana?"
A:"I can't say much about the Flood for now, but Cortana and the Master Chief were separated at the end of Halo 2, and our story is with him - so no Cortana."
- "Cliffhangers galore from issue to issue. But the story itself should have some resolution and a lot of hope for the future Halo stories."
