I am a life-long fan of the Alien franchise. I remember watching the first few movies when I was a little kid, and have been in love with the franchise ever since. The first Alien film is one of my all-time favorite movies. Now, more specific to this particular audiobook, there are some variations in the story which I won't spoil here, but it was not enough to detract from my experience. The narrator does an incredible job, truly a great performance from start to finish. I really enjoyed getting more into the characters' heads, which doesn't really happen in the film. I would highly recommend this to any fans of the Alien series, and any fans of good science-fiction / horror in general. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook, and look forward to coming back for another listen at some point.

Incredible from start to finish.

If you’ve watched the movie, then you wont get much more from this book. It’s almost as if the movie was transcribed. Disappointed, since I wanted more of the aliens origin backstory..,

Rehash of movie
