The Xeno hides, adapts, and is clearly intelligent. In the film Alien, a single Xenomorph is able to kill off an entire ship's crew of adept and armed individuals, minus, of course, Ripley. I also didn't like the inconsistent portrayal of the Xenomorphs and Yautja compared to the Alien and Predator films. This added little value, I found it weird as hell, and it felt more and more like a way to add pages to the book to get it to a publishable length as time went on. One thing that really grated on me as the book went on was how the authors would tell the exact same event from one character's point of view, and then immediately afterward they'd replay that same event, but from another character's perspective. Maybe he felt an AVP book needed to read more like a mindless action movie, I'm not sure. This is especially surprising given that both books were written by the same author. Earth Hive absolutely and spectacularly nailed the gritty, tense, hardcore atmosphere a book in the Aliens series demands (the same atmosphere all the Alien movies had), while this AVP entry was written like an ordinary novel and lacked this atmosphere completely. I've only read one other book in this universe so far, Aliens: Earth Hive, but found that to be infinitely better than this AVP entry. ![]() ![]() Overall I liked this book, but it was definitely disappointing, given it is often cited as one of the best books in the Aliens / Predator / Prometheus universe. ![]() The Predators breed the Xenomorphs on random planets and then hunt them as the ultimate prey, and the humans, as often happens in the AVP universe, get caught in the crossfire. Predator: Prey, Machiko Noguchi, the leader of the colony on the planet Ryushi, teams up with a Yautja (Predator) warrior to help defend the colony against a Xenomorph (Alien) attack. ![]() Albania, Algeria, American Samoa, Andorra, Angola, Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Armenia, Aruba, Australia, Bahamas, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belgium, Belize, Benin, Bermuda, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Brazil, British Virgin Islands, Brunei Darussalam, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Canada, Cape Verde Islands, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, Chad, Chile, China, Colombia, Comoros, Cook Islands, Costa Rica, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Democratic Republic of the Congo, Denmark, Djibouti, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, European Union, Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas), Finland, France, French Guiana, French Polynesia, Gabon Republic, Gambia, Ghana, Gibraltar, Greece, Greenland, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Guam, Guatemala, Guernsey, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Jersey, Jordan, Kenya, Kiribati, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Latvia, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macau, Macedonia, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Mali, Malta, Marshall Islands, Martinique, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mayotte, Mexico, Micronesia, Moldova, Monaco, Mongolia, Montenegro, Montserrat, Morocco, Namibia, Nepal, Netherlands, Netherlands Antilles, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Niger, Niue, Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Palau, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Republic of Croatia, Republic of the Congo, Reunion, Romania, Saint Helena, Saint Kitts-Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Serbia, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Solomon Islands, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sri Lanka, Suriname, Svalbard and Jan Mayen, Swaziland, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Thailand, Togo, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Turks and Caicos Islands, Tuvalu, Uganda, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States, Uruguay, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu, Vatican City State, Venezuela, Virgin Islands (U.S.In Aliens vs.
