Novels[]
There are currently three novels set in the Mass Effect universe, with one more upcoming, some time in 2011. As the game is considered to be the player's story, none of the novels feature Commander Shepard in any significant detail.
Thus far, three of the Mass Effect novels have been written by Drew Karpyshyn, and published by Del Rey Books, with a fourth novel by William C. Dietz due in 2011.[1]
- Mass Effect: Revelation is a prequel to Mass Effect, set in the year 2165. Its plot involves David Anderson and Saren Arterius investigating an attack on a human research station. It was first published in May 2007, six months prior to the release of the first Mass Effect game.
- Mass Effect: Ascension is set a few months after the events of Mass Effect, and concerns a young biotic prodigy pursued by Cerberus, aided by Kahlee Sanders. It was first published in July 2008.
- Mass Effect: Retribution is set after the events of Mass Effect 2, and concerns Cerberus, and their investigation of Reaper technology by using it on Paul Grayson. It was released on July 27, 2010.
- A currently untitled fourth book by writer William C. Dietz. All that is known is that it is a Mass Effect tie-in and will be released September 27, 2011.[1]
