À propos de cet audio

The critically acclaimed author of Alien: The Cold Forge takes listeners to a rogue colony where terror lurks in the tunnels of an abandoned Weyland-Yutani complex.

“Shy” Hunt and the tech team from McAllen Integrations thought they’d have an easy job - set up environmental systems for the brand new Hasanova Data Solutions colony, built on the abandoned ruins of a complex known as “Charybdis”. There are just two problems: The colony belongs to the Iranian state, so diplomacy is strained at best, and the complex is located above a series of hidden caves that contain deadly secrets. When a bizarre ship lands on a nearby island, one of the workers is attacked by a taloned creature, and trust evaporates between the Iranians and Americans. The McAllen Integrations crew is imprisoned, accused as spies, but manages to send out a distress signal - to the Colonial Marines.

All alien books follow the same story line. This one is no different. I was fun.

Alien books hmmm

I’m 4.5hrs into the audiobook and it has gone nowhere. The tie-in to Cold Forge is more of a fan service than anything else.

Also, writers cramming woke culturness into these alien books is super annoying.

I’m not reading alien for a lesson in Muslim culture in space. I have nothing against them or their religion but Alex really just crammed that in there and made a massive portion of the story telling about it.

The narration is not good. Story is ok at best.

This book is the most complex of the alien novels with its take on geo-political politics. As a follow up to the Cold Forge this book is vastly superior and I highly recommend it.

My personal favorite of the alien novels

This was a good alien story showing how bad things can get when WY basically runs a government and military, and how that impacts other governments and colonies who have no ties to WY.

Very slight spoilers ahead.

It also doesn't try to put all the blame on a faceless corporation. It takes individual people, as well as systems in the government and military enabling, covering up, or actively participating in WY's warcrimes for the corruption to set in and thrive. That is bound to exacerbate existing racism, sexism, and general bigotry in the people who make up the systems.

Ignore the "anti-woke" crowd

They spend too much time developing characters who just die. Too many main characters die. “Subverting expectations” has gone too far.

Too much wasted time
