I'm so glad that I took the 2-1/2 minutes to watch that video: That said, I do think there are some very strong images in this collection. There are also some biographical details that were not in the film. I feel like some of the still life shots are much less interesting than the street portraits; but there are some really stunning street portraits in this book.The novel is the first in a new trilogy that ties into the events of the Alien films, although the subsequent books were not penned by Lebbon, but by two other authors — James A. Moore and Christopher Golden, respectively. The project was said to have been spearheaded by Golden after Titan Books expressed an interest in publishing new Alien novels. [1] According to Lebbon, "the three novels are very much stand-alone, but they do together form a fascinating, wide-ranging look at the Alien universe, and Weyland-Yutani's scheming place in it."
