Halo: Battle Born

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

Halo: Battle Born follows Saskia, Dorian, Evie, and Victor, who aren’t exactly friends at their small high school on the middle-of-nowhere colony world of Meridian. Each has their own problems, from absent parents and supporting their family to getting into a good college or making the next hit holo-film. However, those problems pale in comparison to the threat now facing their world: the alien alliance known as the Covenant is laying siege to Meridian for reasons that aren’t so easily explained.

With their village in flames, the four teens find themselves stuck above ground, locked out of the town shelter where the rest of the survivors are gathered. Together, Saskia, Dorian, Evie, and Victor are thrust into battle with nothing but a few scavenged weapons and an injured Spartan, one of the UNSC’s super-soldiers. What’s forged from the destruction will determine the fate of Meridian and tilt the battle for humanity’s survival.
