I love the Alien franchise in all of its face hugging glory. These books continue to keep me on the edge of my seat and interested from cover to cover. I will admit that the 3rd movie isn't my favorite, but the book was absolutely fantastic.

I really wish I could give this one a better rating, but the version I listened to was abridged and I was reminded of how much I hate abridged works. Also as much fun as it was to listen to Lance Henriksen read, no one is ever going to ask him to switch careers. The book itself was fine and told the story of the third Alien movie well. The abridgement was weird and really felt like you were truly skipping from scene to scene leaving significant parts out. Seems sorta weird that a movie that's less 2hrs could not be contained in a 3hr book.

Twice now Ellen Ripley has faced the demons of nightmare and twice now she has survived. But now we see her fresh from her last encounter having been shipwrecked on a penal colony with more passengers than she counted on.
With murders and rapists on one side, and an unimaginable horror on the other, our hero may not be able to make it out alive. The bigger question is who or what will kill her first?
