Buying the Halo novels

Hey, I want to buy all of the Halo novels to learn more about the Universe, but I have some questions. Everything will be bought from [url=https://www.amazon.co.uk]Amazon UK[/url] or any other reputable online store in Europe. [b]1.[/b] Apparently, [i]The Fall of Reach[/i], [i]The Flood[/i] and [i]First Strike[/i] were reissued in 2010. How can I know if what I buy is the new stuff? Sure, the store may show the product with the updated cover, but it may still be the old book (or vice versa). [b]2.[/b] Following question 1, based on the covers, Amazon UK doesn't seem to have the reissued first three novels. What European store do you recommend? [b]3.[/b] Should I buy [i]Evolutions[/i]? Is it, well, as highly regarded as the novels and is a must-read? Thanks, all! [u][b]EDIT:[/b][/u] People have convinced me to buy Evolutions as separate volumes and I found an online store, [url=https://www.bookdepository.co.uk]The Book Depository[/url], that seems trustworthy and has great prices (and free delivery!). They have their products well organized and provide comprehensive bibliographical details, including the publication date, which lets me be sure I'm buying "The Definitive Edition". Thread over, I guess? Maybe you want to say something about the reissued books, idk.

    I read "Contact Harvest", "First Strike" and "Ghosts of Onyx" I liked them. The new books have extra cover-art within the books, and have a 343i logo on it. I reccommend starting with Contact Harvest, the beginning of the Covenant war. Lol, #Literature...
