Alien: Sea of Sorrows

By: James A. Moore

Narrated by: Jeff Harding

As a deputy commissioner for the ICC, Alan Decker’s job is to make sure the settlements on LV178 follow all the rules, keeping the colonists safe. But the planet known as New Galveston holds secrets, lurking deep beneath the toxic sands dubbed the Sea of Sorrows. The Weyland-Yutani Corporation has secrets of its own, as Decker discovers when he is forced to join a team of mercenaries sent to investigate an ancient excavation.

Somewhere in that long-forgotten dig lies the thing the company wants most in the universe - a living Xenomorph. Decker doesn’t understand why they need him, until his own past comes back to haunt him. Centuries ago, his ancestor fought the Aliens, launching a bloody vendetta that was never satisfied. That was when the creatures swore revenge on the Destroyer....Ellen Ripley.

This would make an outstanding movie trilogy.

This was a very entertaining story. Absolutely inscrupulous characters with a driving story, it has mystery, wonder, horror, aliens, all the requisite components for a great time. I loved it.

Excellent Adaptation

It's obvious that the author has gone out of his way to familiarize himself with the Aliens mythos. His descriptions of these monsters make you think they are right next to your about to bite your face off.

I especially like the twist of having the main protagonist have a "connection" to events of the past...as well as the Aliens themselves. can't wait to read the next one.

awesome expansion on the alien universe

this book was very entertaining. I enjoyed expanding apon the alien franchise in an original way. great story telling

I can’t get past the narrator.

The story was good. A lot like other alien books but unique enough to enjoy…. If the narrator wasn’t terrible that is. The constant inflection at the end of every sentence drove me nuts. Felt like my high school chemistry teacher was narrating his favorite sci-fi novel in class.
