Halo in the Dreamworks?

Halo Reach trailer

Halo: Evolutions – Tobias Buckell, Karen Traviss, and Eric Nylund
Yesterday I received a press release from Tor announcing Halo: Evolutions, a collection of stories related to the gaming franchise that contains stories from writers like Karen Traviss, Tobias Buckell, and Eric Nylund. Traviss is basically behind the potential source material what every Star Wars fan better wish any future television of film is derived from–I love her work in that universe. Buckell is the author of some great recent SF with Crystal Rain, Ragamuffin, and Sly Mongoose, as well as Halo: The Cole Protocol. We’ve reviewed several of Buckell’s project and I interviewed him in 2008. Nylund is a veteran in the Halo universe penning several novels in that franchise and had his own Mortal Coils -a kick off to a series – published this year. We had Nylund on the BSC Beat for an interview as well.
