About this listen
A direct sequel to Aliens and Alien 3—Weyland-Yutani, the Colonial Marines, and Bishop’s creator all pursue the android for the deadly Xenomorph data contained in his brain. Written by T. R. Napper, author of the acclaimed 36 Streets, whose explosive work explores the artificial intelligence and what it is to be human.
Massively damaged in Aliens and Alien 3, the synthetic Bishop asked to be shut down forever. His creator, Michael Bishop, has other plans. He seeks the Xenomorph knowledge stored in the android’s mind and brings Bishop back to life—but for what reason? No longer an employee of the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, Michael tells his creation that he seeks to advance medical research for the benefit of humanity. Yet where does he get the resources needed to advance his work. With whom do his new allegiances lie?
Bishop is pursued by Colonial Marines Captain Marcel Apone, commander of the Il Conde and younger brother of Master Sergeant Alexander Apone, one of the casualties of the doomed mission to LV-426. Also on his trail are the “Dog Catchers,” commandos employed by Weyland-Yutani.
Who else might benefit from Bishop’s intimate knowledge of the deadliest creatures in the galaxy?

Story
Ataegina was an isolated world of medieval castles, varied cultures, and conquests, vibrant until the demons rose and spread relentless destruction. Swarms of lethal creatures with black husks, murderous claws, barbed tails, and dreaded “tooth-tongues” raged through the lowlands, killing 90 percent of the planet’s population. Terrified survivors fled to hidden mountain keeps where they eke out a meager existence. When a trio of young warriors discovers a new weapon, they see a chance to end this curse. To save humanity, they must fight.

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.

As a child Chris Hooper dreamed of monsters. But in deep space, he found only darkness and isolation. Then, on planet LV178, he and his fellow miners discovered a storm-scoured, sand-blasted hell - and trimonite, the hardest material known to man. When a shuttle crashes into the mining ship Marion, the miners learn that there was more than trimonite deep in the caverns. There was evil, hibernating - and waiting for suitable prey.

Great Story
Very enjoyable.
It took me a bit to get used to the multiple narrators but once I did it was smooth sailing.
I hope it becomes a series of its own.

Lots of character/ story building at the start, great overall.
Aliens books seem to either be a lot of character and story building with a little of the aliens or a lot of aliens and little backstory. This book is in the middle. It’s a good book and opens up to a future series. In the next I’d rather see more alien action personally. Overall, worth the time and look forward to it being a series with Apones brother(nice touch). Narrators are good as well, take a bit to get used to but once you do, they do a very good job of keeping your attention.

Not good folks
The first narrator’s voice and performance just doesn’t work for me. I found it unpleasant to listen to and the sibilance is far too distracting, I had to skip ahead, thinking maybe I was just hearing things. The second narrator started promising, but still not huh well eq’d for sibilance, but after a few minutes I had to pause the recording. His pace and halted tone are anxiety-inducing.
Don’t know yet about the story because of the distractions, but what I’ve heard so far is cliche “this is what marines do and say right?” uninteresting dialogue where nothing of interest is happening but all the gear and kit checks out.
I’ll give it another chance in a few days.
Back to Phalanx to cleanse my palate.
