Aliens: Phalanx by Scott Sigler

4.0

A fun, unique twist on the usual Alien-universe story. Bronze age civilization and military tactics vs. xenomorphs is a great concept, and Sigler delivered on that.
The biggest issue I ran into with this book is that the first half of the book is quite slow in pacing as it sets up how this society functions. Ultimately I felt like it was worth pushing through, but I will say my reading of this took me much longer than most other books, Alien universe or otherwise.
I listened to the audio version and for the most part I really enjoyed that, the only exception being the voice the reader did for Creen, which sounded like a cartoonish, disgusted valley girl rather than an angsty teen boy.
