News: More books based on Halo than you can shake a "Shh!" at.



At this weekend's Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle, Tor Books (and Microsoft's Frank O'Connor) announced that famed science fiction author Greg Bear will be writing a new trilogy of Halo novels based around the Forerunners, the ancient race in the game's mythology that built the Halo. The series will be set 100,000 years before the game and trace the Forerunners' connections to humanity.

The first book in the Forerunner trilogy will be released

If that weren't enough, DK Publishing has announced they will publishing The Halo Encyclopedia in November. The book will be 352 pages long and feature full color illustrations of many characters, locations and weapons from the Halo universe. The forward will be written by Frank O'Connor, a member of Microsoft's new "internal Halo team", and will include content from all four current available Halo games and the upcoming Halo 3: ODST. Presumably, the encyclopedia will also cover events from the popular Halo novels.

We'll have more soon.
