Aliens: Female War

Rating:
Summary: Lackluster and Predictable
Review: Although I am a big fan of this series, I read this and thought.....Someone ripped a big page out of Lovecraft and failed miserably. The characters were the only redeaming part of this book. The dialogue between Billie and Ripley was outstanding. I only wish they would have continued on with the adventures of Billie.

Summary: why this book is not so good!
Review: I hated the art in this one. you can see from the start the art is very good, very detailed. But if you look at the last few pages it is very visible that the art has gone sloppy! Ripley's character looks and feels very lifeless and dull, I can imagine her in this comic talking like she's extremely bored and tired. The aliens were very plain, they looked balloony and cartoonish. The drawings past the first half of the book look like sketches, they looked very wobbly and almost as if the artist was rushing them. On the better side the story might interest you as it deals with Ripley's psychic relationship with the Aliens, and it gets in depth with Amy and Burt, the two characters who were featured in Nightmare Asylum. I didn't prefer this kind of story too much, but you may. Overall, horrible art, ok story that might be a good story to other people.

Summary: Outsatandung Aliens book!
Review: The best out of the three books,Aliens: Hiveworld, Aliens: Aslyum Nightmare, and Aliens: Female War. Billie and Wilks finally meet the famous Lt. Ellen Ripley. They gather dreamers that are being called by the Mother of all Aliens. They steal a ship and find the Aliens Homeworld and capture the Mother Alien to bring her to Earth. After leaving her on Earth for a while the Aliens on Earth should come to her. They set off a nuclear bomb to go off , I think 6 or maybe 9 months from then. Billie goes off to find Amy, the girl in transmissions. Billie finds her father and her and flee Earth. This hopefully is not the last of this series, it badly needs a sequel. You should get this book if you the liked the Aliens Movies, if you have not seen them you should. The 2nd is my favorite. CM

Summary: Modified "Earth War"
Review: This is "Earth War" with the names of the principal characters changed. Newt becomes "Billie" and Hicks becomes "Wilks,". Needless to say this weakens the book quite a bit!

Summary: A good sequel
Review: This was a pretty good sequel, but the others in the series are slightly better. It really needs another sequel, because a lot of things were not resolved. And the aliens seemed more wimpy than usual, too.
