Edge of Dawn News:

Back in January, we revealed three things:

  • Kelly Gay is writing a new Halo novel.
  • It is titled Halo: Edge of Dawn.
  • It will be a Master Chief story.

You’ve waited and wondered about when the novel will be set in the timeline and what the story could possibly be, and the time has come to now lift the lid on what’s been cooking.

“2560. After eliminating War Chief Escharum and sending the Banished leadership into chaos, the Master Chief continues the fight on Zeta Halo, accompanied by his new AI companion and their loyal pilot Fernando Esparza.

Man, I was really hoping Halo 7 would be the first 343/HS game to actually continue the story of the previous one and not abandon it to start over again.

Infinite's campaign wasn't bad, it wasn't exactly amazing either but I was interested in getting more but we all know how that turned out. Hopefully whatever Halo 7 will end up being will still continue this story, this book just won't be the main next part.

And hopefully Jega doesn't die in this book, would be cool to have him in a game again with a bigger boss fight

Yep this feels like HS is going to wrap up the infinite storyline and drop it like 4 and 5, I’m also expecting Jega to die in the book :/
