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.

excellent

great stories. very interesting the heavy push for female predators in this series. loved the "another mother" story . Scott sigler is Amazing. one of the lady readers had a very annoying uptick at the end of ever sentence. other than that great book.

Started out meh, finished strong

Kinda hit and miss on the first few stories. A few few of the narrators were an odd choice, with an odd rhythm. the continuation of Phalanx by Scott S made it worth it, really enjoyed it. Along with the last story, a continuation of Predators 2019 I think. I see alot of the reviews mentioned woke stuff, but it wasn't all that terrible.

loved it

great stories that would make great movies I enjoyed majority of them, hopefully a great writer director will make it happen.

Thumbs Up

I was skeptical about this being a fan of both the Aliens and Predator Franchises but I really did enjoy it. Different Authors Different Perspectives are what made this a fun read, at least for me.

Great offworld stories that grab your imagination.

This compilations of off world stories, so beautiful crafted by various writers indeed immersed your senses. Many of the stories you felt seemed to be living the experience as you read each chapter.

YO!

If you from Philly and love the Predator folklore... listen to this. This is a masterpiece that will lead you to the gym to prepare for these mother%#$!s to come to Philly for the next hunt! LOL! 😂
But seriously, awesome read/ listen that will fill your need for combat folklore!

Loved it

As another reviewer has said, really enjoyed the ones which followed original storylines!!
Others were great also!
All around 5 stars
5 stars for narration also

it's a good one

really liked the last 2 stories adding to alien phalanx and an added story for the Japanese guy that katana fought the predator in predators with Adrian Brody it was really good keep em coming love anything Aliens or Predator or AVP

amazing novel

One of rhe best in this genre thus far. I enjoyed this as much as the Rage war trilogy.

Great but for a few things

Stories are great loved them all but one of the narrators has a problem she ends every sentence like it’s a question or it’s just part of how she speaks and it throws you off. For one of the stories in the time of the pioneers it works because of the way people spoke back then and it pulls the story together. The other one she narrated however just sounds bad like she’s learning how to read while narrating. The other thing is there’s one story where a particular character mentions she’s trans but it doesn’t have any bearing on the story like you hear it and then you’re wondering how it plays into the story and then that’s it no other mention of it and you’re left wondering why it was included in the first place. Another one is the constant need to bring up black slavery and oppression in a future that is devoid of such stereotypes. For instance in one of these stories and I’m not joking this lady says something to the effect of “ I can still remember what the Underground Railroad was like for my people!” In a setting that’s beyond 2030!! That’s ridiculous there’s no living person on the face of this earth in 2022 that was alive to remember that much less 2030. Stop including black slavery as in books as if it’s still happening because it’s not and it had literally zero bearing on the story.
