The Flood was a bit annoying because I kept thinking about the game instead of using my imagination.

even though they were there :P well according to the official halo wars trailer they were... spartan group omega. i knew there was a spartan III group omega but not a spartan II group omega.. well i dont recall it being mentioned in the books so far.

there needs to be a encylopedia for the UNSC history etc..

like they had one for LOTR which was so gr8 i learnt heaps that werent in the books but were official stories and facts to the story which were true

I ordered the first 3 books on Amazon the other day as well as all the Doom books. I am such a geek.

I am going to have to wait ages for them to get here though.

I read them when I was younger but they were my cousins so I am buying them now. I remember them being good but that was when I was 16 or something.
