Has anyone ever read a video game novel.

Indeed I have, good sir.

I've read the first three Halo novels along with the fourth, Ghosts of Onyx. All were at least decent and engaging books.

I also perused the Mass Effect tie-in Mass Effect: Revelations. It was so delicious. It was like discovering Star Wars for the first time again, only many times better.

Im currently reading The Fall of Reach(halo book)

Read the StarCraft novels. They were pretty good, if a bit short for my tastes. The WarCraft and Diablo ones were crap though.

The Starcraft novels weren't bad. The first one was great -- basically a printed version of the SC story done War of the Worlds style.

I've only ever read the starcraft novels. They were alright I guess, I only ever got through the first one though.

guess we're in the same book club. I liked Ghost of Onyx more, mainly because it deals with the spartan 3 project, and the thinking of spartans as disposable weapons, just more engaging of a novel rather than Mass Effect, though the world seems much more impressive and I can easily see movies, tv shows and future games stemming from the central idea.

i read the halo boxed set (fall of reach the flood and first strike)
they were great and ill soon order ghost of onyx and contect harvest wich will take about a month to arrive here

I've read the first three Halo books as well.

The first video game book I ever read was the Resident Evil books. Possibly the worst read I've ever had.

I have read the original three Halo novels and the old Mortal Kombat novel, and I thought that they were all good...

What's the reading order for the Halo books? I was going to buy the first one the other day, but couldn't remember which it was - 'Fall of Reach'?

1. Fall of Reach
2. The Flood
3. First Strike
... then the newer ones, but I have not read those yet...

the order is:
1. Fall of reach
2. the flood
3. First strike
4. Ghosts of onyx
and the newest one to come out on the 29th of the month, I think it is, Contact Harves.

Also I have read the mass effect book and enjoyed it and hope they make a sequel. Oh yeah I have also read a warhammer 40k book called the Ultramarine Omnibus which is actually 4 books in one. I would recommend it however I must warn that it gets violent, very violet.

Cheers guys, I'll check them out.. ;)

I read all of the halo novels except ghost of onyx. They were pretty good.

I've read all 7 Resident Evil novels by S.D. Perry*, the Mass Effect book, and most of the first Star Wars: Republic Commando book.


*None of which were the novelizations of the shitty movies.
