Description
When the Colonial Marines set out after their deadliest prey, the Xenomorphs, it's what Corporal Hicks calls a bug hunt - kill or be killed. Here are eighteen all-new stories of such "close encounters", written by many of today's most extraordinary authors.
Set during the events of all four Alien films, sending the Marines to alien worlds, to derelict space settlements, and into the nests of the universe's most dangerous monsters, these adventures are guaranteed to send the blood racing - one way or another.
Full list of authors include Paul Kupperberg, Dan Abnett, Rachel Caine, Yvonne Navarro, Christopher Golden, Matt Forbeck, Ray Garton, Weston Ochse, David Farland, Larry Correia, Keith R.A. DeCandido, Briane Keene, Heather Graham, Mike Resnick, Marina J. Lostetter, Jonathan Mayberry, James A. Moore, Scott Sigler, and Tim Lebbon.

the title is at least half false advertisement
this book should have been called "stories of the colonial Marines" not aliens because literally less than half of the stories actually involved the Xenomorphs and all the good narrators had the crappy stories

It’s ok, bit cliche, but should expect that by now.
It’s a bunch of short stories based, essentially, on Aliens. Lots of Marines, poorly thought out plans, company men, Weyland Yutani, and Xenomorphs. It wasn’t bad, but you could skip it and be no worse off. The story from the Alien perspective was a nice change, several stories were entertaining and almost all well narrated, minus the last one where the female narrator just couldn’t really get male voices right without making them sound a bit retarded. Like a swearing Lenny armed to the teeth. It’s basically pulp action, no real suspense, but again, it’s short stories so tough to build that up properly in a universe you are probably already familiar with.

Aliens: Bug Hunt - A Fantastical Journey in Space
Aliens: Bug Hunt is an imaginative and enjoyable look at the Alien expanded universe through the eyes of the colonial marines. As a testament to the longevity of the franchise, it is an ambitious and exciting take on the legacy brought to life on screen with the original Alien film in 1979, and then again in 1986 with its sequel Aliens. These adventures are a fun take on the source material and stay true to much of the mythos set down in previous works, both on paper and on the silver screen. However, the ones I find the most engaging and well crafted are the ones which prominently feature xenomorphs, and less so their speculative counterparts. While those sections have a magnificent and well thought out premise, especially probing the bounds of what we know to exist in this particular cinematic and literary universe, they don't have nearly the same punch or draw that the originals do. This doesn't mean that the authors behind these particular adventures didn't write well, or create memorable stories, but it does mean I was less enthusiastic about listening to them or connecting with their characters as I was when xenomorphs arrived on scene to sew their unique brand of chaos and horror. Overall I do recommend this as a great listen for anyone interested in probing the boundaries of the Aliens Franchise, getting a glimpse of the action from the side of our friends in the colonial marines.

Overall Not too bad
I knew exactly what I was buying when I bought it. The first thing I always, repeat ALWAYS do is to listen to the samples..I tend to go on from there. Listen and read the reviews...etc..I thought everyone did this but after reading some of the reviews not so... I decide if I want to purchase it by doing this.. It's my process.. I make my decision based on the narrator/s. (yes, believe it or not) Because as we ALL know or maybe just some of us, a bad narrator can really ruin the book. My example is Scott Brick. and his doing Mitch Rapp?? Seriously?? Give me a break..yes, yes I know no one is George Guidall but Scott Brick? I just don't get or like his "breathless" style. It's annoying. I avoid all his reads...& yes I know I may be in a minority but it is what it is...ergo I miss out on some really great novels because of it, I know. Especially Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan series or Hurwitz's Evan Smoak series...I won't go near them because he reads them...Anyway back to this one...I knew going in that these were short stories about Colonial Marines and NOT the ALIENS...like some on the review side expected... also listening to the sample said exactly that...again...I knew what was coming...It kind of baffles me when you read a negative review and they say things like they were expecting another performance story with multiple characters ie... ALIENS: Out of the Shadows and "River of Pain" as well as the new one "Sea of Sorrows",,(ALL EXCEPTIONALLY DONE & TERRIFIC) So here we have many short stories about the Colonials and what and how they deal with "Bugs" Not all Xenomorph's stories either..(as mentioned in the review SAMPLE) I knew this as well..so given what was ahead...I had been prepared and they are enjoyable short stories about the Colonial Marines and how they deal with these "Space Bugs" . I liked most of the narrators...however some were a little pedantic and not very interesting to listen to...but you do get some great ones...ie R.C. Bray...he ALWAYS Brings it...I'd love for R.C to do the Rapp books that is for sure...sorry...I get riled whenever I think about how I miss that character..in every way...Vince Flynn was on a completely different level in IMHO.
SO there you go...I think if you enjoy the parts in the Alien series about the Colonial Marines, you'll like this book. I would recommend it...
P.S. I've heard this several time throughout whenever the authors go to "ACHERON"...(pronounced AKER-ron), not ("8che-eron") gets mispronounced by the narrator.... Also (Cal - pA' {with along "A"}- mose.)..it's pronounced (Cal' pa-moss)..

Marines and what they deal with from Aliens films
Overall the book was decent. The reading is a little on the bland side. The character performances are read most of the time there are a few readers that breathe life into the characters. Worth a listen if you are interested in Aliens and the marines from the films.

Pretty Solid Stories Overall
Overall the stories were interesting and kept me listening, a couple of them were more flat than others. I was surprised how a few of them intertwined with thew movies usually adding a little extra backstory to them so that's cool. Definitely had some good "spooky" elements to some which is nice and might even work for some people not particularly interested in the alien universe but more "thriller" stories.
