Contact Harvest

This is how it began . . . It is the year 2524. Harvest is a peaceful, prosperous farming colony on the very edge of human-controlled space.

But we have trespassed on holy ground - strayed into the path of an aggressive alien empire known as "The Covenant." What begins as a chance encounter between an alien privateer and a human freighter catapults mankind into a struggle for its very existence. But humanity is also locked in a bitter civil war known as the "Insurrection." So the survival of Harvest's citizens falls to a squad of battle-weary UNSC Marines and their inexperienced colonial militia trainees.

In this unlikely group of heroes, one stands above the rest . . . a young Marine staff sergeant named Avery Johnson.
