BOOK REVIEW: Hard-Boiled Crime Thriller Meets Sci-Fi Western in Alien: Cult, the Latest Expanded Universe Novel from Titan Books We had a chance to read the upcoming novel Alien: Cult, from Gavin G. Smith and Titan Books. Check out our review inside!

“Smith’s approach to the franchise through the lens of horrific crimes investigation is brilliant, recontextualizing the brutality of the Xenomorph life cycle and the greed of the Weyland-Yutani corporation as that of vile crime and dark intention.”
