Resumen del Editor

The planet LV-363 teems with exotic life, including a plant growing in the shadows of its deep rifts. The plant’s flower yields a valuable narcotic, and people are forced by the cartels to harvest it.

When a Yautja (Predator) ship arrives for a hunting ritual, the Predators seed the rifts with Xenomorph eggs. The aliens emerge and the result is bizarre and deadly hybrids, with humans trapped between the Predators and their prey. These deadly Xenomorph hybrids—some of which possess the ability to fly—swarm out of control and may prove more than either the Yautja or the humans can defeat.

Enjoyable

Great narration and the plot and pace were good. Only complaint is there really wasn’t a single character I wanted to root for or even like a little. All terrible people / monsters - but saying that it was probably a more realistic portrayal of likely behaviors considering the circumstances the author created.

Enjoyable but repetitive

I think the story does a great job of getting into the mindset of the addict human characters, and I liked the rivalry taking place among the Yautja, but this story doesn’t feel like it’s breaking any new ground. While the action with the predators was pretty well described, it was really y clear what happened to the dozens of other humans on the planet… the story followed a few by name but then after after some brief encounters all but two or three are just suddenly dead and it feels like there are details that got glossed over. Adding to that the motivations behind what is happening in the Yautja rivalry and the accounts at the center of the rivalry shift and change as if the content editor didn’t do a thorough enough job. But it was an overall entertaining book.

Better than the woke anthologies of late...

I'm guessing there's a world of difference between reading this, and listening on audible. Imagine your mom trying to impersonate Darth Vader and that's how the narrator sounds with every single male character, but even worse with the Yaujta. I'm a maniac for all things Alien and Predator. I give a tremendous amount of grace. This narrator was a terrible choice and despite my love for both franchises, and my excitement for another AVP novel, her performance does as much as it possibly can to screw up the experience.

Awesome!!

Ok so I am more of an Xenomorph fan than Predators but for the first time I seriously enjoyed a Predators book! I loved the plot from beginning to end. I almost finished the book in one sitting but you know, life. Finished as soon as I could next day.

Sweet

I loved all the readings will surely pass it on to my f and f.

A complete story

A great story. Revenge, betrail, and new dread. Yery good. The Rift is a dark crevis with a drug weilding flower. but a plot thickes as a Predator left behind creates the hunting ground for the unblooded.

Multiple viewpoint’s really set the stage for a great story

This was a great listen! It’s another solid look into the Zeno verse and I couldn’t be happier with it.

Great listen

very good story with a excellent narrator, hope they write more and it is available soon

great

I really enjoyed the detail within all the fights. and overall I felt like the characters were pretty easy to follow.

awesome

I really enjoyed this one. A lot more information on the predator culture and a lot more from their point of view which I enjoyed also a new variation of xenomorph in this book was pretty nasty and brought a new game to the field.
