RISING TIDES

Matthew Svenson returns to active duty after the destruction of Alpha Halo, in a desperate fight to stop the extinction of humanity as the Covenant cleanses their worlds. He lands on a human colony world, unknown to the people there that their destruction is coming.

Fural 'Nasamai accomplishes his goal of becoming a Blademaster and returns to the Covenant capital of High Charity, but it is at a time of great strife for the Sangheili, and for the Covenant.

A Sangheili warrior estranged from the alien empire lives alone on a mostly uncharted world in the Covenant fringe space. He must fight for his own survival, and to find his faith in the Forerunners once more.

And a Sangheili assassin becomes the victim of a sinister plot deep within the hierarchy of the Covenant. A plot that he must fully uncover before it plunges the alien empire deep into a civil war…

While the Human-Covenant war reaches its height, the Sangheili must come together, and Humanity must fight against impossible odds. But when the Covenant changes the game more than once, defeat becomes all but certain.

In this sequel to Blade Brothers, the stakes are ramped up significantly. And what happens here has the potential to change the galaxy forever.
