*The novel's cover is illustrated by concept artist Chase Toole, who also designed the cover of ''[[Halo: Saint's Testimony]]'' and provided artwork for ''[[Halo Mythos]].'' The novel includes a map, drawn and annotated by Sarah Campbell, which shows several key locations shown in the novel.
*The novel has several inconsistences with the number of enemy ships involved in the [[Carrow Conflict]]: when the [[Jiralhanae]] fleet is first mentioned, they are stated to have two {{Pattern|Varric|heavy cruiser}}s and two {{Pattern|Sinaris|heavy destroyer}}s. Shortly afterwards, the ''[[Foebane]]'', one of the cruisers, departed for the planet's surface. After [[Thars 'Sarov]] confronted [[Hekabe]] and Hekabe ordered his ships to turn on Thars', two Jiralhanae cruisers were stated to be attacking despite the fact that there was only one cruiser left in orbit while ''Foebane'' dug up the [[Sharquoi]] hive. After the battle, [[Anexus]] states that they lost two of their ships, but while the third is presumably destroyed as well, it is never mentioned again nor is it seen being destroyed despite ''Foebane'' being stated to be the last Jiralhanae ship left at that point.

*On page 192, Governor [[Ellis Gass]] is told that the two [[Covenant frigate]]s in orbit have retreated rather than face her merchant ships in the opening stages of [[Operation: BUZZHAWK]]. However, the two frigates are stated to be ''Jiralhanae'' frigates when previously up until that point they were identified as belonging to Thars and were thus ''[[Sangheili]]'' ships. Presumably, this was a simple error on the part of the author, particularly as this is the only time they are called Jiralhanae ships.
