Book Synopsis

An original novel set in the Halo universe—based on the New York Times bestselling video game series!

Stripped of armor, might, and memory, the legendary Forerunner warrior known as the Didact was torn from the physical world following his destructive confrontation with the Master Chief and sent reeling into the mysterious depths of a seemingly endless desert wasteland. This once powerful and terrifying figure is now a shadow of his former self—gaunt, broken, desiccated, and alone. But this wasteland is not as barren as it seems. A blue light glints from a thin spire in the far distance…

We finished the book! Thank Odin. More Content Warnings for scenes that reference SA.

Jesse is back and what else would we talk about but the book based on Techland's zombie game, Dead Island!? It's pretty bad! And more than a little racist. And there will be some trigger warnings in parts 2 and 3. But episode 1 should be fine if you're cool with the gore and the subtle racism. So that's a thing.

Book Synopsis

Mario and Luigi are Enjoying a peaceful afternoon when Toad makes a chilling announcement: Bowser has kidnapped Princess Peach! Several strange, ghostlike beings overcame the Princess's guards and took her back to Bowser's Keep.

As the three friends travel into the Mushroom Kingdom, they learn that Bowser used an old book of spells to create the ghosts. As long as the ghosts guard Bowser's Keep, Mario and Luigi cannot pass. To break the spell, Mario and Luigi must search for six special mushrooms. Once all six mushrooms have been gathered, the friends can break the spell.

Mario, Luigi, and Toad better move fast. They have to travel to the Kero Sewers, Tadpole Pond, Forest Maze, Yo'ster Isle, Moleville, and Booster Pass. Can they collect the mushrooms in time to save the princess? -via the Video Game Library

HotCyder joins Kevin to talk about Mario and the Incredible Rescue! Is it a kids book? Sure is? Are we holding back on it? Well it wouldn't be Pixel Lit if we did.
