Re: Greg Bear writing halo novels about Forerunner
Posted By: FrankieDate: 4/3/09 2:18 p.m.

In Response To: Re: Greg Bear writing halo novels about Forerunner (UNSC_Trooper)

: Moreover, they're dedicating three books to this setting. Unless
: Bungie/Microsoft are building a very in-depth universe for the
: Forerunners, similar to the 2500 universe, the books are just going to try
: to shoot three times at the same target, and two of them will probably
: miss.

It's going to be a trilogy. A connected universe that will remain faithful to the scale and mysteries, while exploring the detail and challenges of a VERY powerful culture. This won't be some skirt-raising exercise in Forerunner populist-ism.

Folks know way more about Forerunners than you think, but we're definitely going to respect that strange sense of wonder and awe that Bungie infused from day one.

It will be BIG Greg Bear fiction in a faintly familiar place, but one that's full of surprises. Think Eon.
