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 the Yautja or the humans can defeat.

Leland Gaunt opens a new shop in Castle Rock called Needful Things. Anyone who enters his store finds the object of his or her lifelong dreams and desires: a prized baseball card, a healing amulet. In addition to a token payment, Gaunt requests that each person perform a little "deed", usually a seemingly innocent prank played on someone else from town. These practical jokes cascade out of control, and soon the entire town is doing battle with itself. Only Sheriff Alan Pangborn suspects that Gaunt is behind the population's increasingly violent behavior.

It is the second stage of human colonization - the first age, humanity's initial attempt to people the stars, ended in disaster when it was discovered that Earth's original superluminal drive did permanent genetic damage to all who used it - mutating Earth's far-flung colonists in mind and body. Now, one of Earth's first colonies has given humanity back the stars, but at a high price - a monopoly over all human commerce.

The galaxy was once terrorized by the Sturm, a group of “species purists” intent on destroying any human with genetic or cybernetic enhancements. Fashioning themselves as the one true “Human Republic,” the Sturm cut a bloody swath across the stars, killing billions before finally being defeated and driven into the far reaches of Dark Space. Centuries of peace bred complacency. Everyone believed the Sturm had died out in the Dark. They were wrong.

Not bad for short SciFi/Horror.
Performance is great. Story is fairly middle of road. Lots of similarities to the Event Horizon movie but I don't mind more stories in the X investigates Black Hole or Rescue type stories.
I feel it could have been expanded on more and the sense of time could have been shown better for the reader to get a better sense of what they were experiencing.
Overall nothing terribly new, but good for a commute!

It’s a story you’ve read/heard before.
It isn’t bad, but it’s not all that good, as a story. The performance is excellent, top-notch. The writing is far to Florida, and not infrequently a bit meandering and repetitive. I believe it would’ve been an all-around better story if it had been shorter. The ending is really rather pat, which was particularly disappointing.

Not Event Horizon
The story had taken inspiration from Event Horizon, and not a copy of it. The story wasn't too long and I enjoyed it. The story is not scary, nor action packed but the performance of the narrator was good to listen to.

mostly just a rehash of Event Horizon
pretty much just a rehash of Event Horizon. Hard to like any of the characters, very predictable from start to finish, except one pressing concern.... with all the flame throwing & body burning going on in a space craft, where is all the smoke going? Did I miss something?
Maybe this piece is an early writing effort to sort of redo Event Horizon with maybe enough changes to avoid lawsuits? Probably.
Unfortunately I recommend waving and passing by this piece.

It was okay
Not bad, but honestly I found it to be a less atmospheric version of the movie event horizon. The premise was good but didn't manage to capture any creepiness. I will maybe check oit.kther stuff by author but was left a bit underwhelmed by this one. Still I think was worth the cost. The narration was good.

Poorly written immitation of a cool 90's movie
Horribly done immitation of Event Horizon, but without any of the things that made that movie good. The poorly written characters aren't worth caring about, and have backstories consisting of one or two lines. This story is an insult to horror and is why the genre suffers more that it could ever deserve. Avoid at all costs.
