Review by Tavita on 18th November, 2009
5 stars "If you love Halo, then you'll love this."

To sum up, this is an entire ENCYCLOPEDIA dedicated to the world of halo.
It covers absolutely everything currently in the story.
That means every game, 1,2,3,odst and wars. But also includes every detail of all the novels (up to when this was published).
It's set out very nicely with full-page pictures on EVERY page accompanied with exorbitant details.
Every enemy, ali, vehicle, world and more is mentioned to the finest of detail. Many facts you may not know. From facts about the 7 sacred rings to the the beginning of the spartan project.

Overall this is a must have for anyone interested in the world of Halo, you'll love it. :)

Review by Rachelle on 15th December, 2009
5 stars "All you need to know about Halo!"

Quite simply, a complete encyclopedia of everything Halo. A must for all fans… and for mothers who want to know what on earth their child is talking about when discussing The Flood, Spartans and Master Chief.

"damn well awesome"

i remember reading the 1st halo instruction book and it had some very cool details about the weapons and finding out about how the sniper uses a 10mm aluminum high pressure shell and thinking how cool to know that was while playing the game, and now i have this WOW my mind is blown about all the stuff
