New Halo novel Contact Harvest debuts Oct. 30th
Sergeant A.J. Johnson is easily one of Halo's most iconic characters, and we're sure fans will be delighted to know that the latest novel in the franchise centers around the charismatic character. Oh, and we should probably mention that the book is officially debuting next month. The book will be released on October 30th to be exact, one day shy of Halloween, though so far we have failed to make any significant connections to ghosts and goblins.The novel is penned by Bungie lead writer Joeseph Staten. Halo fans will also recognize Staten as the voice actor for many of the series grunts. In a way, players have been killing Staten for years. We wonder how he feels about that. We're sure he'll feel better if everyone buys the book.

Contact Harvest will be available this October and is a a prequel to the previous novels telling the story of how the covenant came to be and how war on humanity began.
