À propos de cet audio

While a moon hurtles toward certain destruction, taking with it a Weyland-Yutani bioweapons lab, talks on a nearby colony could lead to all-out war among the colonies.

Hygeia, an outer rim colony, is doomed as the moon on which it was built hurtles toward an inevitable collision with the dead planet Hephaestus. When a distress signal arrives from a Weyland-Yutani biowarfare outpost near the colony, a desperate plan is launched to evacuate the trapped scientists and colonists. Their destination: LV-846, a key United Americas colony where high-level talks are scheduled to address the galaxy-wide hostilities between the colonies. Once there, the evacuees, including a contingent of Colonial Marines, discover a plot that could plunge the colonies into all-out war. Their only hope may be an alliance with the deadliest ally imaginable.

I don't find this narrator matches this type of story, especially after just listening to The Cold Forge. I've got 2 hours left and I couldn't really tell you what's happened at all. Boring. Glad I didn't pay.

dull

If you’ve listened to all the aliens book, you’ll love this one as well! Great job to the author and narrator, hope they write/ record some more.

Great book!

Author Mary SanGiovanni clearly understands the action-horror assignment. Her description of Space Marines clearing an overrun Weyland-Yutani bioweapons research facility is like something out of the 'Doom' and 'Half-life' video games of the 90s (recently perfected in 'Metroid Fusion' and 'Fallout'). Images of dismembered bodies, smeared bloody handprints revealing resisted abduction to xenomorph birthing chambers, and bodies exploded by chest-bursters will have you shivering.
Less fortunately, the plot is kind of silly, the action is overscripted, and the dialogue is direct from a Hollywood screenplay. I have read better.

Likewise a little bit disappointing: Shiromi Arserio turns in some over-the-top dramatics in her delivery and Blackstone Publishing sound engineers struggle to soften her natural sibilance (stick to your device or car speakers for this one. Earbuds are a tough one unless you can turn down the treble on your equalizer). The presentation is solidly "average".

Altogether, I judge 'Alien: Enemy Of My Enemy' worthy of 8.5 stars out of 10. You do need to suspend some disbelief to fully enjoy it, but it was in the 'Plus' catalog when I found it - it's easily worth the time investment for free. If they ask for a Credit, however, this recording likely still merits it.. but other 'Alien' titles available on Audible are better.

Cinematic Gore
