About this listen

As a deputy commissioner for the ICC, Alan Decker’s job is to make sure the settlements on LV178 follow all the rules, keeping the colonists safe. But the planet known as New Galveston holds secrets, lurking deep beneath the toxic sands dubbed the Sea of Sorrows. The Weyland-Yutani Corporation has secrets of its own, as Decker discovers when he is forced to join a team of mercenaries sent to investigate an ancient excavation.

Somewhere in that long-forgotten dig lies the thing the company wants most in the universe - a living Xenomorph. Decker doesn’t understand why they need him, until his own past comes back to haunt him. Centuries ago, his ancestor fought the Aliens, launching a bloody vendetta that was never satisfied. That was when the creatures swore revenge on the Destroyer....Ellen Ripley.

Engaging story and an excellent addition to the Alien-verse.

An honest report causes a lot of trouble for a decendent of Ripley. All is not as it seems though. He is an empath and he's channeling the Aliens. So Weylan Yutani shanghai him and blackmail him into helping them locate and capture some aliens for them. If you're a fan of the genre then you'll love this. But read the book, unless you have a low threshold for agravation that is.

For me, the story was ruined by the narration. That style of sing-song/ironic narration irritates me to the point where it just plain makes me want to throw something. I do wish there was some school to teach wanna-be narrators how to read a novel so that it enhances the book, rather than lapse into a bored monotone that either sends the listener into a sleep haze, or annoys them into an anger haze.

Great story , irritating narration

Generic and bland characters. Bizarre unsubtle voices. Plot is a good addition to the series.

Poor performance and writing, good story.
