My Goodreads review: Alien: River of Pain

Alien: River of Pain: An Audible Original Drama by Christopher Golden

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


A little harder to follow as an audio drama than the previous Audible installment of this series, but still a great way to make the miles pass quickly on long holiday car trips! General lack of F-bombs might make this slightly more family-friendly, as well, but the menace of the original series is still present & enhanced by the theater of the mind.

I did think that the corporate villains this time around were a bit two-dimensional, but that's a minor complaint. Production values are excellent, & voices well-chosen for the characters (particularly the "voice" of Ellen Ripley.) Recommended for all fans of the Alien mythos, especially those facing a long car journey.
