Nearly every author who was asked to provide stories for the ''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe|Halo: Evolutions]]'' anthology accepted the offer. Greg Bear was among those who declined; though he was interested in the project, he wished to write a full-length novel rather than a short story.<ref>'''Halo Waypoint''', ''Inside Halo: Evolutions, Part 2''</ref> A few months later, [[Eric Raab]], [[343 Industries]]' contact within [[Tor Books]], suggested that Bear be hired as the author of the planned ''Forerunner Saga''. When [[Frank O'Connor]] approached Bear about writing the series, the latter gladly accepted the offer.<ref>'''Halo Waypoint''', ''Greg Bear Talks Halo Cryptum, Part 1''</ref> | |||
