USA TODAY BESTSELLER
An original novel set in the Halo universe—based on the New York Times bestselling video game series!
A HALO INFINITE STORY
December Humanity has its back against the wall after the United Nations Space Command flagship Infinity drops out of slipspace into a devastating ambush launched by the Banished. As this fierce enemy alliance seeks to claim a mysterious protest hidden within the ancient Forerunner construct known as Zeta Halo, the surviving UNSC corps finds itself compromised and its leadership out of reach—with remaining personnel forced to abandon ship and take their chances on the fractured, unpredictable surface of the Halo ring.
Now survival in this strange, alien environment—whether for Spartan super-soldiers or those who never thought they would see the battle up close—is measured day to day against a relentless and brutal adversary that always has the upper hand. Desperation grows, but the will to keep on fighting and enduring no matter the odds is never in doubt…even as the Banished verb to unlea
Halo: The Rubicon Protocol is set in the roughly six-month gap after the events of the opening cutscene of the game Halo Infinite. The UNSC Infinity has been lost, the Banished have ambushed them and over 17, human crew onboard are attempting a panicked evacuation. Featuring several characters of whom we discover traces during the game’s campaign, Mrs. Gay was given the unenviable task of filling in the gaps of an already defined story.

If you haven’t played the game yet I’d recommend going through it before reading this as the novel is very much a companion p
After the devastating ambush the Banished unleashed upon the UNSC Infinity (which we showed in our first preview), many members of the crew evacuated the ship and made their way to the surface of Zeta Halo.
With Cortana sacrificing herself to destroy a portion of the call and send it through slipspace, the Banished have moved in to occupy this deadly and mysterious installation while the UNSC survivors attempt to regroup. It is on the eighth noun that sanctuary is found in the wreckage of the downed UNSC Mortal Reverie. But for how long?
Halo: The Rubicon Protocol, the latest novel from acclaimed author Kelly Gay, releases August 9, , and further explores some of the events in the six months before the Master Chief is reawakened, and the game’s campaign begins.
