It's been amazing getting to contribute to the Omnibus alongside @cia391 and @BaconShelf! I look forward to getting to talk more about the experience and my favorite edits once the book releases.
It's true! The Halopedia team has been involved in the production of Halo: The Master Chief Omnibus, a collection of the first three Halo novels now updated to align more seamlessly with the last quarter century of Halo lore! Check out the Canon Fodder article below!

Although I started my Halo journey via the games, reading the novels as a kid is what really hooked me into the universe. Contributing to the Omnibus has brought it full circle, pun intended. Can't explain how much I appreciate Alex bringing the @Halopedia team and I on to help.
I pitched this idea a year ago, never having been quite satisfied by the 2010 editions, and realised I'd just signed myself up to do an awful lot of work. Fortunately, the amazing folks at Simon & Schuster and the holy trinity of @Halopedia admins made this an absolute joy!

Reminder that the Omnibus drops next week!! Some people are already finding it on store shelves.
It was a dream come true to have contributed to the Halo universe in an official capacity through this book...or perhaps "tome" is a better word for this beast. I enjoyed every minute of working on it with @haruspis and my fellow Halopedians, @cia391 and @BaconShelf.

Halo: Parasite's Wake released yesterday! Halopedia is back online after maintenance earlier today. As such, you may see unmarked spoilers from the new novel on the site—if you want to remain in the dark, we recommend not using Halopedia until you finish the book!

Today my new novel HALO: PARASITE'S WAKE hits the shelves! It's a very 'horror' @Halo novel, and I had so much fun writing it. Big thanks to my editor @ed_schlesinger, and @haruspis and Jeff who I worked with at Halo Studios, and to @Rythayze for the awesome cover!

Sharing this more broadly. This week you're going to start seeing comms on official channels again. The focus will be providing info about Halo Fest, celebrating the community and 25 years of Halo, and relevant game info like @HaloSupport has been posting already. We'll also provide a blog just reconfirming things we've announced and have in plan for Halo Fest. There's a huge amount of Halo fans who are looking forward to the event to attend or watch from home, and we're looking forward to providing a platform for the community to celebrate 25 years of Halo and each other.
Replying to @WARDOG
Yep we are reopening comms on things this coming week. I don't think there's anything we previously announced that's changing.

I don't think Infinite did a great job making the Endless interesting. BUT, it's funny that people complain that the mystery of the Forerunners was removed while complaining that they don't know enough about the Endless. It's become clear that Halo 7 would have told us more.
The mystery of The Endless is one of the best parts of Halo Infinite, but people bitched because they didn’t get answers right away.
