The '''''Halo''''' '''novels''' are books about 340 pages each and have expanded heavily on the [[Halo Universe]]. The first three novels were published by [[Ballantine Books]], while the two after that are published by [[Tor Books]]. Because of a 3-book contract by TOR, there is one more planned novel, but so far these are the only known novels:

==Trivia==
* In most of the novels, there is a Covenant subplot. These usually feature Grunts such as Yayap or Dadab.
* There is the [[Marathon]] symbol between the "A" and "L" of Halo on the cover of each novel.
*The novels had many errors, including typos, most of which contradict to the games. This is likely because that there were different authors which are also not part of Bungie Studios.
