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.

(P)2020 Blackstone PublishingAs one would imagine, the Aliens are indeed riding roughshod over the humans and have almost brought humanity to the brink of extinction. Forcing the few thousand to take shelter and remain hidden in old mountain forts or "holds".
We see the struggles of these humans through the eyes of our young heroine AnaLeah who unlike Ripley has a lot of 21st century Feminist angst about gender roles and such. Which is the only problem I have with this book.
The Alien series had a female lead already which is Ripley but we haven't seen her with a feminist chip on her shoulder or go on any tirades about gender roles and such. Here tho there is a fair bit sadly.
The rest? Well it's written well enough and the readers performance is excellent with many different voices for characters. I would suggest you definitely go for it if the plot intrigues you!
