About this audiobook

Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created, with Alien: Covenant, a new chapter in his groundbreaking Alien adventure. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise. But it is actually a dark, dangerous world.

A decent if slightly boring sci fi based thriller. I say sci fi based meaning that the characters and sets are set in the future and are preparing to make an interstellar voyage. That's It! There is absolutely zero Alien/Xenomorph involvement although they are mentioned in an obscure way. To say more would give away spoilers. Overall this was well written and performed, but was only entertaining as a slight and unnecessary "catch the terrorist" thriller that gave us a little bit of background for a few characters in the Alien: Covenant movie and that background was fairly irrelevant.

Brilliant book! Really enjoyed learning more about the covenant mission. Hope many, many more stories are released in the Aliens and or Predator universe.
