Mostly good

It was mostly well written and performed. The author knows dialogue and action. Unfortunately, the author knows NOTHING about guns and American gun culture. Persistently calling magazines "clips" is just one example of MANY glaring errors of civilian guns and that isn't even touching on the glaring errors on military service.

Nice additions to the movie

This is basically the script, but with many solid additional details. I rewatched the movie afterward and it is more fun than the movie - and I enjoyed the movie for what it is.

Two very enthusiastic thumbs up

I loved this book. I am an avid Predator fan and this book did not disappoint. It owes me nothing.

Enjoyed it!

I enjoyed the read, the characters and the jokes. I liked the narrator as well.

Better than the movie!

It pretty much follows the movie word for word. But it’s better explaining curtain situations in more detail. It’s a worth while listen.

best movie tie-in novel ever

Having seen the movie first, I was not sure what to expect. This was incredibly well-written, the characters had a tremendous depth, and the action/adventure element well-done. Though with traeger I kind of wondered a bit about his own motivation other than wanting to be a alpha male. I would have loved to have seen the story continue, especially with Dr. brackett, Rory and Quinn McKenna. Unfortunately likely will not happen but it would still be cool if they did a sequel to this. I thought it was funny, dark, and incredibly violent, but still an enjoyable re ad. It might not be the best of the Predator franchise, but definitely one of the best movie tie-in novels I've ever read.

Enjoyed this book very much. I have several more to read so I will continue.

Great story

This book started out fast, great action
, very fun story. the reader was terrific. Highly recommend this especially if you love the Predator books.

Better Than The Movie!

The reading of this title added details the movie did not. J.P. Chronin, was spot on made the characters come alive.

Great story not so much narrative

I loved the story. It painted a vivid picture in my mind and took me back to my comic days and times of seeing the Predator on screen. The narration on the other hand seemed lackluster and without heart. I feel that giving the characters their own voice would do even more wonders for the story. Although a good story I found myself adding more to them than the narrator did for most of the book. It seems at times he would get into character and other times just be reading the story. Overall I would encourage people fan of the Predator to listen.
