On October 31st mailman brought be Gears of War -novel Aspho Fields written by Karen Traviss. it has basically 2 different stories: one focuses on a mission that takes place right after the end of the first gears game, but before the second game. The other story is told through long flashbacks and tells how Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago joined the army and fought a battle in Aspho Fields in order to claim possession for the Hammer of Dawn. This was in Pendulum Wars and before Locust's Emergence Day. Book contains 350 pages so I'm in a little hurry to read it before Friday 7th 2008.

Actual game Gears of War 2 has received so great reviews that I just can't wait three days... I have already cleared my schedule from all other activities other than gaming.
