Destiny Novels?
What do y'all think the odds are of us ever getting any Destiny novels? I know the Halo novels were pretty good and Id love to have a full fledged Destiny story. Imagine a space-western novel about humans living outside the city. Would be epic.

I mean, i'd love that. Some of the Halo books were terrible but still fun reads. I'd personally go for a 'Dark Age' set of books, follow Cayde or Ikora through their struggles. Hell give me a Drifter book.

3 RepliesBungie doesnt even care enough about their lore to make sure they dont contradict it. On the lore tab for one of the Curse of Osiris sparrows it has a transcript from the Consensus session where Osiris was banished. Then, more recently, they released their comic showing the same event, but it's entirely different in how it happened. When called out on it, Narrative Director Margaret Stohl said that all grimoire is 'folklore' and subject to change. If they cant keep things straight between their own game and a comic, I have little faith a novel would be any better. You want a novel? Go wade through the slog of Fanfiction. Most of the time it's garbage but once in a while you find a decent writer.

2 RepliesHopefully not as bad as the Osiris comic

When Joe Staten was still around it might have eventually happened. Nowadays you'd probably have to pay per chapter if it ever happened, and it probably wont, certainly not to the same level of quality at least.

6 RepliesThe Halo novels were terrible, though.

So long as they trust the license to someone who has a comprehensive understanding of the lore and wants to tell a story based on that, I think it would turn out awesome. I mean, the Halo novels expanded on the universe Halo 1 introduced. Who's to say Destiny couldn't do the same thing?

2 RepliesOnly if they are written by the Black Library.
