Three books.

-Fall of Reach, by Eric Nylund, describes the events that occured before the first game.
-The Flood, by William D. Dietz, recaps the events of the first game while adding other plot developments.
-First Strike, by Eric Nylund again, tells how Master Chief and Cortana escape from Halo to return to Earth.

All three are official novels and are canon to the games and their storyline.

The ones by Nylund are quite good. The one by Dietz is okay, but I feel like he could have done a better job with it. But I'd defnitely recommend reading them.

The Flood was my least favotrite one. 2-The Fall of Reach 1-First Strike. They weren't amazing, but they were a great read.
