Halo: Contact Harvest releases today
It's a good day for Halo fans, folks. Not only did Bungie reveal our Halo 3 Halloween surprise, but the latest novel in the franchise was released today. Titled Contact Harvest, the novel chronicles the life of Avery Johnson, better known as the invincible Sergeant Johnson in the Halo games. In honor of the release, the novel's author (and Grunt voice actor extraordinaire) Joseph Staten has placed the prologue on Bungie.net. Yes, the entire prologue. Head on over to Bungie.net to give it a read. Once you've done that, do your civic duty and buy the full novel at your local bookseller. It's the right thing to do.

New Halo novel Contact Harvest debuts Oct. 30th
Sergeant A.J. Johnson is easily one of Halo's most iconic characters, and we're sure fans will be delighted to know that the latest novel in the franchise centers around the charismatic character. Oh, and we should probably mention that the book is officially debuting next month. The book will be released on October 30th to be exact, one day shy of Halloween, though so far we have failed to make any significant connections to ghosts and goblins.The novel is penned by Bungie lead writer Joeseph Staten. Halo fans will also recognize Staten as the voice actor for many of the series grunts. In a way, players have been killing Staten for years. We wonder how he feels about that. We're sure he'll feel better if everyone buys the book.
