actuly the fall of reach was a prolauge then the flood was 1st the the first strike is the second hes righting the this book 2/3 because ove the story being based on halo2 and being the third book in the searies [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MrTinkles I'm not sure if anyone's said it yet or not or if anyone's realized this yet but First Strike was the THIRD Halo book. The first was Fall of Reach and the second was the Flood. Just thought I should mention it before you guys dig yourselves a hole for dumbassness. Just to let everyone know, I'd like to see William Dietz write a book following Halo 2 like he did for Halo. That would be the fourth Halo book. Then I want to see Eric write the next book which would be the prequil to Halo 3. I may sound like a dumbass but a lot of my friends have read all three books like me (I own the first two, my friend never gave back the copy of the third book for some reason which I got the day it came out) multiple times each and really want to know what happens to Kelly and the doc.[/quote]
