+==Official Summary==
+{{Article Quote|The Master Chief and Blue Team are deployed by the UNSC to Alpha Corvi II, a precarious human colony world, seeking to halt the Covenant's efforts to uncover something hidden below the planet's surface.
+Before they were legends in the Halo universe, they were soldiers on the front lines. Alpha Corvi II is under a full-scale attack by humanity's newfound enemy, the Covenant. While most of the UNSC's forces have been ordered to defend the colony's primary city, a Covenant strike team has infiltrated a small mining settlement. With resources limited, the UNSC sends the Spartans--the Master Chief and Blue Team--to neutralize the alien threat and discover what they're after. The Spartan strike team quickly finds out that they will have to rely on each other and a small cadre of human rebels in order to survive and complete their mission.
+Writer Alex Irvine (Halo: Rise of Atriox, Halo: Tales From Slipspace) and artist Dave Crosland (Halo: Tales From Slipspace) lead us on a thrilling mission from the early days of the three-decade long Covenant War.<ref>[https://www.amazon.com/Halo-Collateral-Damage-Alex-Irvine/dp/1506707475/ref=pd_sim_14_3?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=1506707475&pd_rd_r=JZGSWCEDKX00MTPRPP3S&pd_rd_w=8RcG5&pd_rd_wg=bmDDI&psc=1&refRID=JZGSWCEDKX00MTPRPP3S '''Amazon''': ''Halo: Collateral Damage Hardcover'']</ref>}}
