Alien Resurrection

About this book

The Alien saga returns in this official novelisation of the 1997 science fiction horror film, written by A.C. Crispin from the screenplay by Joss Whedon. Two hundred years after the events on Fiorina 161, the military research vessel Auriga drifts at the edge of the solar system, near Pluto and Charon. Under the strict command of General Perez, a secret programme has achieved the impossible: Ellen Ripley has been brought back from the dead through cloning, and with her comes the deadliest predator ever encountered. Scientists want to breed the creatures for their own purposes, convinced they can control them. They are wrong. When a crew of mercenary smugglers arrives with a delivery of live human cargo, the stage is set for disaster. As containment fails and the hunters become the hunted, Ripley, changed in ways she barely understands, must join forces with a band of desperate outlaws to survive. Crispin expands the film with extra tension, inner thoughts and atmosphere, and dedicates the story to the woman who made Ripley an icon of action and adventure heroism. Fast, claustrophobic and relentlessly suspenseful, it is a must-read for fans of the Alien franchise and classic space horror.
