The series also shares a direct narrative connection with Halo: Shadows of Reach, with its characters and events leading directly into Halo: Divine Wind. It also shares a narrative connection to the short story Sacrifice as the Covenant loyalists appear in Halo: Divine Wind.

Halo: Divine Wind has narrative connections to Halo Wars 2, continuing the story started there.

All of the novels in the series feature the Forerunner archeon-class ancilla Intrepid Eye and the Covenant remnant the Keepers of the One Freedom as major recurring antagonists.
