Summary

The first anthology of original short stories featuring the confluence of two iconic properties, as the Predators seek the ultimate prey: the Xenomorphs from Alien

The ultimate hunters, the Predators, are pitted against their ultimate prey, the Xenomorphs, with humans caught in the middle! Taking place on Earth and in distant space, these tales have been crafted by a who’s who of today’s most talented authors of the fantastic:

David Barnett • Roshni “Rush” Bhatia • Curtis C. Chen • Delilah S. Dawson • Mira Grant • Susanne L. Lambdin • Jess Landry • Yvonne Navarro • E. C. Myers • Scott Sigler • Maurice Broaddus • Chris Ryall •
Bryan Thomas Schmidt • Steven L. Sears • Jonathan Maberry and Louis Ozawa

With 15 new and original stories, this first-of-its-kind anthology is inspired by the events of the original Aliens vs. Predators movies, graphic novels, and novels. Includes a new story written by Jonathan Maberry and Louis Ozawa (“Hanzo” from the movie Predators) as Hanzo’s brother faces the eternal threats of both the Yautja and the Xenomorphs.

Wokeness has ruined another genre!

Where do I begin??

70% of the stories are read by women.-This isn’t a problem but they are on the whole terrible at their job!!!
One continuously ends every sentence with a question mark.

One of the stories is about a female predator struggling against the oppressive ‘patriarchal’ predator hierarchy.

Another story manages to bring slavery and racial politics to the forefront of the storyline,

Well done authors and producers, you’ve ruined a well-loved storyline which I’ve been reading and watching for over 20 years, well done.(sarcasm).

Terrible woke female stories

So very , very bad. I hope to god the next predator novel ( eyes of the demon ) is not written by the same writers and with a bit of luck not the same narrators either.

mostly good but let down by 1 narrator

Overall good stories and narration however one narrator ruins a few of the stories and made them unlistenable and those stories were left unheard which is a shame to the writer. the narration is terrible with every sentence seeming like a question, genuinely the worst narrator I've heard on audible.

if you're fan of aliens or/and predators then this is a good audiobook.

A few good stories, with questionable

So we have a collection of stories here, I'd say 50% of them held my interests and maybe half of those were decent.
Some of the narrating wasn't great.

The Alien stories are getting worse and worse and I feel it's due to the writings trying to create something new and different. You've got the two greatest monsters ever created, give me some pulse rifles and marines and I'll be happy, I dont need a soap drama, pregnancy or romance just action. Who's with me?

Let's hope it's not game over man for more Aliens Audio, bring back Dirk Maggs.

WOKE BULL SHI....

Returned it after listening for around an hour and a half, woke BS That's about as subtle as a xenomorph at a pride parade, one of the stories is just repeated references to how all white people are to blame for slavery with a couple of half arsed scraps between xenomorphs and predators thrown in to drag it out to the required duration of the audio book, the subsequent narrator was so annoying that i didnt give that story a chance, I immediately googled how to return an audible book and cracked on with ending my own misery.

Almost every story is the same.

Introduce the female lead.
Background information about the female lead.
Aliens turn up.
Predator turns up.
Predator needs female leads help.
They team up & defeat the aliens.
The only thing that changes is the environment.
No replay value at all.
Bug Hunt & If it Bleeds did the short story the way it should be done.

Very disappointing

I was really hopeful this would be good judging by the reviews.

Woke boring man hating stories, terrible narration and just overall painful to listen to at some points.

I shall be retuning this one and getting my credit back.

Great fun

Mostly great stories performed well. I had to take a star off the performance one, though, as one of the women who read two of them was horrible to listen to. Her inflection at the end or even in the middle of sentences ruined those stories for me.

Woke Politics Strike Again

Woke? Check. Trans superhero? Check. Empowered woman of color governed by evil blonde-haired, blue-eyed Karen, who has literal racial memories of the American south? Check. It would appear that not even space monsters are safe from the ever-encroaching social justice infestation. Sad, because there are several excellent stories here worth listening to. Maybe this is just another version of Burke's plan: smuggle the few bits of good fiction inside the body of progressive politics to get it past quarantine.

Predators meets woke culture

Spoiler: Woke culture throughout. Great stories if you love the AVP universe, pervasive female tough girl trope. 5 stars.

wow

this sucked. the chics voice that goes UP and Down at the end of sentences is mind numbingly horrific! so is the PC ,woke nonsense. now the yautja females are repressed? since when? all the other books have them as badass warriors. And not having Bronson Pinchot narrate was such a let down..expected so much more..it all came off whiney and self righteous. please leave your person social justice religion out of books....pretty pathetically written and lack luster performances. it's just..so bad. wasted a whole credit on it. oh well.

Just awful why even do this Mr. Maberry?

These stories are insulting and unnecessary. I'm a minority and the one thing thing that has always attracted me to AVP material is that it's naturally diverse. Strong female characters are real woman (Xeno Ripley excluded), not Wonder women capable of whooping Arnolds arse! Racisms exists, but it's not shoved down your throat with stupid references to events this future has no way of remembering or would be overly concerned about. The "various authors" are clearly NOT science fiction writers and the narrators read the stories like they didn't care. Unfortunately the reviews are right. This really is trash.

Strong women vs. aliens

Book 3 of Predator "WAR" introduced a female protagonist organically, this is just a highlight of men and their wrong doing. I watched Dutch tossed around like a rag doll by a Predator, I watched countless space marines torn in half and mutilated by the Xenomorphs. However in this iteration of science fiction fantasy strong women rule the day.
This narrative only highlights males, arrogance, abusiveness and womanizing attributes. Women only save the day and never display any of these negative traits.
Ripley needed an Xo-suit to slay a Xenomorph, but this narrative would have me believe a fed up woman with a shotgun is the most powerful being in the galaxy.
Women can be powerful, however men can be powerful as well, not just cannon fodder for alien species.
The book became a bit much to swallow.

Hodgepodge of Mediocre Stories

I own well over 100 titles on audible. This is the first that I've felt strongly enough about something to review it before finishing. It's a disjointed collection of short stories meant to be a love letter from various others. In practice, some stories are decent, some are outright bad. This also applies to the narrators. There's one particular female narrator that has this sing-songy tone to how she talks while putting forth almost no effort to give life to different character voices. I had to jump ship at that point.

In addition, I'm all for inclusion and support various communities, but at least have whatever persuasion they claim be a plot device rather than an attempt at LGBTQ friendly bingo.

Nothing like Bug Hunt

I was already unsure about this book and man did I waste a credit. Very dry narration for most stories and most aren’t compelling or entertaining at all. Was hoping for something similar to Bug Hunt but the aliens and predators show up in the stories basically at the end of each
