War will always find a man like you.

This ALIEN story begins where most end: with a xenomorph loose on a damaged spaceship hurtling through space. Once a highly decorated marine, Chris Temple, a recently widowed single father to two young daughters, Jane, 11, and Emma, 8, is onboard. Despite his particular set of skills, Chris doesn’t get involved in the fight with the alien, instead focusing on keeping his children safe as the ship comes in for a crash landing.

The family land safely on an idyllic outpost planet, where Chris is told that the ship has been destroyed beyond recognition and nothing could have survived the crash. That’s only the first lie. Chris and his daughters love their new life, but something doesn’t feel right. Chris is a paranoid type, but just because he’s paranoid, doesn’t mean he’s wrong.

There are nasty surprises in store as Chris investigates the web of lies and conspiracies. After leaving a ruined Earth, it seems Chris and his daughters have crash-landed on a planet on the verge of all-out civil war. Chris will have to call on the battle skills he never wanted to use again in order to protect his daughters, deal with violence-hungry marines, and battle the xenomorph that’s killing people regardless of which side of the civil war they’re on.

Not much going for it in the aspect of Aliens themselves but an overall good book regardless

Same as the Rest.

The narrator was amazing! He really brought the characters to life. I do wish the story was more focused on the xenos, however. Overall, I did like the book.

it's an original story with new characters

A good human antagonist adds a lot to an Aliens story (see The Cold Forge) but this book might as well not even have had Xenos in it at all. They have no meaningful impact on the plot after the prologue and make very few appearances.

Also, this Aliens expert that Titan supposedly has (mentioned in the author's notes) should assign somebody to make sure the authors know what a pulse rifle is in-universe. It's not a ray gun. just listen to the Larry Correia contribution to Bug Hunt so you don't sound clueless about an iconic element of the universe. The same thing pops up in the excellent River of Pain and a few other novels.

Not really an Alien novel

Meh- it is not a bad book I guess, but it lacked proper development. I mean, a side character we only meet when they are killed monologues in their head for several minutes after the alien has already ripped their guts out(felt like AI?), but we have NO development on how the main family is joyous just a day or so after they loose everything. I guess Im biased now. Nothing is the same after reading “Aliens: Phalanx”, a novel so good I yearn for it on big screen but also don’t want it touched for fear Hollywood will screw it up.
This is an aliens novel- so it is never a waste of time tho- some will love it. Some will lament finding yet another book not as original as Phalanx! Lol

Nothing. Nothing stands out.

decent story that definitely better than the average alien novel. could tell the difference between an author who is a true admirer of the franchise, such as this, and an author who allows their personal agendas leak through the story.

woke pandering kept to a minimum,.

if you are looking for your typical Things That Go Bump in the night type alien novel this isn't it, the narrator is absolutely one of the best I've ever listened to

an alien book not really about aliens...

I did like the minimal use of swearing in this book unlike others where it seems to be in just about every sentence. It was nice to read or listen a book that didn’t have people talking sleeping with everything all the time or push some kind of message, it just focused on the story and world and did a great job. ***SPOIlER ALERT***The only thing I wish there would have been was an epilogue of maybe some aliens appearing on the at the end because that does seem to be left open to the possibility. Over all one of the best and now probably my favorite Aliens Book I’ve read and I have read almost all of them.

Great story

Let down by the portrayal of the Marine squad: A supposedly experienced, highly trained squad goes in without gathering intelligence and apparently without any doctrine. They are undisciplined and poorly equipped and just charge in. A few centuries in the future they’d be far better equipped and have drones and androids to carry out scouting, hacking and medical tasks. Portraying them as an impetuous bunch of rookies detracts from the story and inspires exasperation in the listener.

Generally good, but…
