About this audiobook
An original novel set in the Halo universe—based on the New York Times bestselling video game series!
October 2559. With the galaxy in the suffocating grip of a renegade artificial intelligence, another perilous threat has quietly emerged in the shadows: the Keepers of the One Freedom, a fanatical and merciless Covenant splinter group, has made its way beyond the borders of the galaxy to an ancient Forerunner installation known as the Ark. Led by an infamous Brute named Castor, the Keepers intend to achieve what the Covenant, in all its might, failed to: activate Halo and take the last steps on the path of the Great Journey into transcendence.
But unknown to Castor and his new, unexpected ally on the Ark, there are traitors to the cause in their midst—namely the Ferrets, composed of Office of Naval Intelligence operative Veta Lopis and her young team of Spartan-IIIs, who have been infiltrating the Keepers to lay the groundwork for Castor’s assassination. But with ONI’s field operations now splintered and cut off by the Guardian threat, Veta’s original mission has suddenly and dramatically escalated in scope. There’s simply no choice or fallback plan—either the Ferrets somehow stop the Keepers or the galaxy faces an extinction-level event….

This is my 22nd Halo audiobook. It has a great continuation story and I love Ferrets squad and especially Veta (Mom), but the narration is terrible. The narrator does very excited and emotional voice when absolutely nothing happens, but then gets extremely phlegmatic during peak action. It's completely messed up. I strongly suggest skipping this audiobook and reading a paper book instead.

I've listened to every Halo book thus far and this one ranks in the middle or lower third- firmly 'meh' status. Many of the voice actor's pronunciations were off, leaving me wondering how the production team managed to get this gig... seriously, who reads ensign as "in-sine" and why did nobody correct the actor *anywhere* in production. Other than these issues, it's a decent story- if a bit bland.

Good book but the voice actor is terrible with anything besides her own regular voice. She butchered the spartans not to mention the brutes.
