Book Description

Written as a collection of notes in Damon Baird's journal, The Survivor's Log will expand on declassified testimony and other facets of the game and serve as an in-universe artifact within the timeline of the series. This firsthand account will chronicle the soldier's experience in a riveting and beautifully illustrated oral history-the events he witnessed and the deterioration of COG society, his decision to take his unit rogue, and stories from the other members of his cohort. Divided into sections on COG society, Kilo Squad, and E-Day, the book underscores the perseverance of Baird and Kilo Squad and highlights key details on Locust forces. The Survivor's Log provides a rich retelling of the seminal events at the heart of the Judgment narrative and serves as a primer for the entire series.
