So as most of you guys know, their is alot (or quite a bit) Books based on video games, such as the Dragon age books, Halo books, Mass Effect Books and so on. So what video game book are you reading right now and or what have you read? also are their any you plan on reading?

I am currently reading Halo: Ghosts of Onyx, I plan to read after, Halo: Contact Harvest, then Halo: The Cole Protocol. I have already read Halo: Fall of Reach which was awesome. :)

I've read a Halo book or two. It was pretty good.

I want to get the Elderscrolls books now.

None, actually. I play lots of videogames, but I don't like reading books based on videogames. Which is odd, because I like reading Let's Play stories based on games that I like, or any sort of Civilization-type game.

I like alternate history, so some of these Civlization playthroughs are basically alternate history with a video game framework.

I'm reading a Warhammer 40k book atm (Rynn's World), which I guess kinda count as a videogame book since they are videogame about Warhammer 40k and what got me into it was Dawn of War

I have read 'Aspho Fields' and Jacinto's Remnants' which are the two Gears of War books, I have also read 'Resident Evil: Nemesis' and 'Halo: The Fall of Reach'.

I would consider the Mass Effect ones except I am only really interested in the story of the game and the back-story rather than separate stories with other characters.

I'm not reading any at the moment, but I finished the War of the Ancients-trilogy (Warcraft) not too long ago. A pretty nice read, really.

I'm thinking of getting the Diablo books next, since I've got a huge soft spot for anything Diablo-related.

I've read both Gears of War novels which were pretty good and also Mark of Chaos which is a Warhammer novel based on the game of the same name

I'll probably pick up the next Gears book when it's released

I've read the first Halo book but I can't remember the title of it. I may or may not read the others. If comics count, I've got like, three from The Darkness. They are pretty mediocre actually but, I haven't given them much of a chance recently. I am going to try picking up a Mass Effect book or several at some point in the not-too-distant future

Well, actually, my opinion is that a few of the halo books are amazingly good, but one or two really suck.

First Strike, Fall of Reach, Ghosts of Onyx, First Contact, all great

Cole Protocal, The Flood, AWFUL

Skip Cole Protocol, that one sucks, read Halo: First Strike instead, it bridges the gap between Halo 1 and Halo 2, and it is a lot like Fall of Reach.
