Wilks was a space marine with a near-fatal flaw: he had a heart. Billie was a child, the only survivor of a far-flung colony outpost. Thrown together in the last hellish night of an alien invasion, Billie and Wilks helped each other get out alive. Thirteen years later Wilks is in prison, and Billie lives in a mental institution, the nightmare memories of the massacre at Rim seared into her mind. Now the government has tapped Wilks to lead an expedition to the aliens' home planet to bring back a live alien. But the competition on Earth to develop the aliens as a new weapons system is brutal. When Wilks's team departs on their mission, a trained assassin trails them. And what follows is no less than guerrilla warfare on the aliens' planet--and alien conquest on Earth!

This book has definately earned it's 4 stars. Because it was just unbeleivably interesting. The characters in the novel are well portraied and the storyline has extremely good twists has the plot of the story thickens! Lots of action and gore! Excellent!

I found this book lying un-read in my bookcase one day. After seeing the film Aliens recently I thought I'd read it. A day later, I'd finished it! I just couldn't put it down! Every spare moment I spent reading this book. The characters, the plot, the twists are unfaultable and the pace is outstanding. Action packed. I couldn't believe I had never read it before. I've got Nightmare Asylum on order.....as well as the rest of the series! Brilliant book! A must read for any fan of the films or thrilling science fiction novels!

So starts where the Alien series should've gone on...
Whilst I like Alien³ (the original viewable on Alien Quadrilogy that is, not the butchered cinema version), I feel this is where it really should've picked up. Read more

Can't the rest of the series of Aliens books be this good?
I loved it from start to end, & got very attached to Wilks. I stopped reading the series when they changed to different characters.

A very nice spinoff of the movies
I think one of the main things this book does is show what human civilization is like in the future. It's a subject that really wasn't touched upon by the Alien movies. Read more
