The official novelization of the famous Alien movie with Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley!

A crew of spaceship Nostromo is suddenly woken up from a cryogenic sleep because of mysterious signals coming from an unknown planet and received by a ship computer. The astronauts land on the planet surface and go to investigate an alien spaceship where one of them is attacked by an alien which fasten itself on his face. When the crew returns to their ship and abandon the planet, nobody forefeels that the real horror will begin very soon ...
Industry Reviews
"Foster's treatment of the source material has only enhanced my appreciation for this classic story." - Blogcritics

"The book was well written, it filled in a few gaps in the film that I didn't know needed to be filled until I read them, and it put the film in a different context, which may color my next viewing. If you consider yourself a fan of the film, it's worth checking out." - Top Hat Sasquatch

"A hell of a fun and terrifying read. It's one I recommend to anyone who loves the film or a good old fashioned sci-fi romp through the hell in our stars." - Ravenous Monster

"In text form the primal dread conjured by its events and themes is as timeless as the cold and empty darkness from which it spreads. 9/10." - Starburst

"The official novelization is a stroll-back to memory lane of sweat inducing horrors." - Retrenders
