About this listen

The number-one New York Times best-selling author of Infected delivers medieval carnage as a pre-industrial society fights extinction at the hands of a massive infestation of Xenomorphs.

Ataegina was an isolated world of medieval castles, varied cultures, and conquests, vibrant until the demons rose and spread relentless destruction. Swarms of lethal creatures with black husks, murderous claws, barbed tails, and dreaded “tooth-tongues” raged through the lowlands, killing 90 percent of the planet’s population. Terrified survivors fled to hidden mountain keeps where they eke out a meager existence. When a trio of young warriors discovers a new weapon, they see a chance to end this curse. To save humanity, the trio must fight their way to the tunnels of Black Smoke Mountain - the lair of the mythical Demon Mother.

I loved it!
it's a brilliant little side story to keep the Alien universe alive and frightening. I loved the characters and inventive language used including the subtle refrences to other books. the writer should really be proud of this and I hope to hear more from them. I could really picture the surroundings and felt like I was living the story. the performance was entertaining if not good I personally loved all the voices After having listened to pretty much all the alien and AVP related Audio books on here I definitely think this is one of my favourites.

yes ! just yes well done definitely worth the read

If you are wanting an out-in-space horror, this might not be up your street - but I would thoroughly recommend giving it a go. If you are fan of Aliens, then this is a fantastic and gripping book and had me listening non-stop - it won't dissapoint. Also the narrator did a fantastic job at conveying the characters and tempo of the book. All around awesome read.

Different... In a good way!

I've listened to a few aliens books, and most of them are unoriginal, lazily written tripe that get by on the franchise name alone. This book, however, is definitely not like those.

it feels like it injects some fresh originality to the franchise and does so in a well written and crafted story with characters you learn to love.

Are there any massive twists or dramatic developments? No, not really... but it doesn't seem to struggle without them.

It's just a fresh setting and outlook for an already well known franchise.

The narration is top notch too. If you like aliens, you'll like this.

Pretty impressed

I am a great fan of the Alien films and especially the recent run of audible books/plays.

I must admit I was initially sceptical about Aliens: Phalanx as I could not see how the creatures could work in a none space setting!

Scott Sigler has done an amazing job with an excellent story, compelling characters and plenty of twists and references for those familiar with the alien universe.

This was an excellent book and I found it very hard to stop listening! I hope we see more from this writer and this world in the Alien universe going forward.

Unexpectedly Great!

Really enjoyed this, was glued to the headphones for a few days. Some aspects pretty familiar, if you liked other books in the Alien universe, you will probably like this also. Good premise and the story was well told. I loved the dynamics of considering how a more primitive civilization could fare against the Xenomorphs. If anything, I think I would have enjoyed a trilogy with more character development and world-building. It felt like a lot (and a lot more potential) crammed into one book.

Great listen. Nice departure from the usual
