About this audiobook
An original young adult novel of the Alien universe
Olivia and her twin sister Viola have been dragged around the universe for as long as they can remember. Their parents, both xenobiologists, are always in high demand for their research into obscure alien biology.
Just settled on a new colony world, they discover an alien threat unlike anything they’ve ever seen. And suddenly the sisters’ world is ripped apart.
On the run from terrifying aliens, Olivia’s knowledge of xenobiology and determination to protect her sister are her only weapons as the colony collapses into chaos. But then a shocking family secret bursts open—one that’s as horrifying to Olivia as the aliens surrounding them.
The creatures infiltrate the rich wildlife on this untouched colony world—and quickly start adapting. Olivia’s going to have to adapt, too, if she’s going to survive...

Reviews for Alien

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Voice and speed are awful for this story, my opinion...
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It is the Alien story with different setting. A book for tenagers, maybe mostly girls. Exiting and more.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5All-in-all a really good story. The writing works exactly the way good writing is supposed to;
- You despise the despicable, and you love the loveable.
- Main characters are fleshed out and three-dimensional.
- Side characters are exactly what they're supposed to be: one-dimensional and only known to the listener by name and demeanor. Nothing more, nothing less. Yet, they still remain memorable.
- The intent of the writer is crystal clear. Nothing feels "misplaced". It invokes the right emotions at the right time.
I highly recommend this one. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It wasn't the best book,but it was an good read. It took a good while to get to the action.
