The final novel of the Kilo-Five Trilogy by #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Traviss—part of the expanded universe based on the award-winning video game series Halo!

2553. With the thirty-year-long Covenant War finally over, the Office of Naval Intelligence faces old grievances rising again to threaten Earth. Angry and bitter colonists—still wanting to settle scores from a human insurrection put on hold for three decades—crave justice…as does a man whose life was torn apart by ONI when his young daughter was abducted for the SPARTAN-II program, raising questions about the program’s ethics. Black-ops squad Kilo-Five now find its collective loyalty tested beyond the breaking point when the father of their Spartan comrade, still searching for the truth about her disappearance, prepares to glass Earth’s cities to get an answer. How far will Kilo-Five go to stop him? And will he be able to live with the truth when he finds it? The painful answer lies with someone long dead, and a conscience that still survives in the most unlikely, undiscovered place… Adventure Genre Fiction Literary Fiction Military Movie, TV & Video Game Tie-Ins Science Fiction

I've read the full trilogy myself but had heard great things about the performance in the audiobooks. I'd had the pleasure to chat with Karen Traviss about the performance so had to get a copy and take a listen!

The writing in this trilogy, particularly this final book really does stand out above other game universe novels. All of Traviss' characters feel like real people, even BB who is a digital.

Can't recommend it highly enough, get Glasslands, get Thursday War and finally get Mortal Dictata.

Karen's Gears of War series is brilliant too!

Perfect ending to the best Halo Book Trilogy

All the previous books in the trilogy up to this point, is exactly what you want in any story, if you're expecting to act a certain way to certain parts you know that's coming, you're unprepared for when they arrive. You're just enthralled, I've never felt such emotional attachment to all the characters in a whole book. There was not a single character in this trilogy that didn't leave a profound impression on me, their individuality was so profound, villains have their vulnerabilities, your heroes are not infallible, good do the bad, the bad do some good, two opposing forces find common ground on certain things and commiserate with one another, it's such a fantastic story. The voice acting I liked it throughout the books, can't find faults really except with the jackals really.

Easily the best trilogy I've read in years
