Story
It was the end of World War II. FDR's New Deal had redefined American politics. Taxes were at an all-time high. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki had created a fear of total annihilation. The rise of secret government agencies and sanctions on business had many watching their backs. America's sense of freedom was diminishing... and many were desperate to take that freedom back.

For 12 years, the virtual world of Yggdrasil has served as the playground and battlefield for the skeletal lord Momonga and his guild of fellow monsters, Ainz Ooal Gown. But the guild's glory days are over, and the game is shutting down permanently. When Momonga logs in one last time just to be there when the servers go dark, something happens - and suddenly, fantasy is reality. A rogues' gallery of fanatically devoted NPCs is ready to obey his every order, but the world Momonga now inhabits is not the one he remembers.

Bunny girls do not live in libraries. This is simply common sense. And yet, that's exactly where Sakuta finds one in the wild. More bewildering is who the bunny girl is: Mai Sakurajima, a girl one year older than Sakuta, famous at their school for her acting career even though she's currently on break. To top it all off, it seems like no one else in the library can see Mai at all, no matter what she does or...wears.

They were the Savages. Raiders from our distant past. Elites who left Earth to create tailor-made utopias aboard the massive lighthuggers that crawled through the darkness between the stars. But the people they left behind on a dying planet didn't perish in the dystopian nightmare the Savages had themselves created: they thrived, discovering faster-than-light technology and using it to colonize the galaxy ahead of the Savages, forming fantastic new civilizations that surpassed the wildest dreams of Old Earth.

The Imperial Guard are the backbone of the Imperium’s military strength. While the Space Marines get all the glory, it’s the guard that holds back the tide of threats that would soon drown the Imperium by sheer weight of numbers. These audio dramas bring you into their tanks, platoons and trenches to see how ordinary men and women face the horrors of the 41st Millennium.

Two centuries ago, the Imperium of Man and the upstart Tau Empire fought to a standstill in the Damocles Gulf. Now, as the 41st millennium draws to a close, the tau have returned. As the world of Agrellan falls under attack, the White Scars and Raven Guard rush to its defence, but with the skilled Commander Shadowsun leading the alien forces, the Space Marines and their allies are hard pressed. Kor'sarro Khan, Huntmaster of the White Scars, swears that he will win the day in the most direct way possible – by taking Shadowsun's head.

Publisher's Summary
The New York Times best-selling origin story of the Master Chief - part of the expanded universe based on the award-winning video game series Halo!
The 26th century. Humanity has expanded beyond Earth’s system to hundreds of planets that colonists now call home. But the United Earth Government and the United Nations Space Command is struggling to control this vast empire. After exhausting all strategies to keep seething colonial insurrections from exploding into a full-blown interplanetary civil war, the UNSC has one last hope. At the Office of Naval Intelligence, Dr. Catherine Halsey has been hard at work on a top-secret program that could bring an end to the conflict...and it starts with 75 children, among them a six-year-old boy named John. And Halsey could never guess that this child will eventually become the final hope against an even greater peril engulfing the galaxy - the inexorable confrontation with a theocratic military alliance of alien races known as the Covenant.
This is the electrifying origin story of Spartan John-117 - the Master Chief - and of his legendary, unstoppable heroism in leading the resistance against humanity’s possible extinction.

Intro to Halo
I read this book back in high school and enjoyed it then but so was hesitant to try to read it again. However, the narration, characters and story really shine through in this audiobook. I strongly recommend this book for any science fiction fans but especially if you've ever been interested in finding out more about the Halo universe.

If you like the games you’ll love this book
Not only do you get som info about the spartan program, but you really do get a grasp of how serious the human covenant war really is. Definitely worth a listen, Todd McLaren does an amazing job at portraying master chief.

Inaccuracies in narration
I also own the book so I referenced it at times for weird mistakes. The voice of Todd is great but it just seems like he presses records, reads it out and that's it. Mjolnir was pronounced wrong but that's okay because it still sounds "close" to the correct pronunciation but stuff like ONI is not pronounced O-N-I. Also, Chapter 15, The "setting" date in the book says 2552 when the narrator says 2542. The narrator overall sounds great but attention to detail that pertains to halo seems to be missing.

solid read for any fan of the iconic game series
Loved it, great for any long time halo fan. definitely hooked me during cimbat sequences, you always hear how Spartans are portrayed in the written material and it didn't disappoint.
a few words or mispronounced here and there but it didn't bother immersion to much. I have a heard time with sitting down for books and this helped alot.
story was fun and I had a blast comparing it to what I had already knew about the lore of the series. although you'll enjoy it even with out knowing the lore or having a perfect memory of the games plot.
definitely gonna be continuing this series.

Enjoyable despite cringe
The story is fantastic. The performance was enjoyable aside from two issues: character accents were not consistent, and worst of all there were MAJOR mispronunciations of key words such as Mjölnir, ONI, ect. The mispronunciations were a constant reminder that the person reading knows nothing of Halo which was rather distracting. Was also odd that in the first scene with Chief, the narrater seemed to put on an OK impersonation of the characters voice from the game, then never used that voice again... Anyways, great book!

It was all amazing, except....
everything was awesome when I was listening but the voice actor kept on pronouncing Mjolnir wrong. it's more like "Me-Y'all-Neer". but other than that simply amazing.

The story is amazing, Eric Nylund will keep you on the edge of your seat for the duration of the book. The narration was good, except for some odd voice decisions here and there, and the mispronounciation of "Mjolnir". Overall an incredible listen.
