Hey, I have got myself to reading Alien/Predator novels fairly recently, less than 3 years ago, and I'm hooked ever since. I'm trying to be up to date with new releases, but I always have plenty of older stuff to check out, so I'm not discouraged when there is a streak of worse books, like with Titan releases right now. My first novel was Infiltrator, I bought it because I was playing Fireteam Elite, maybe that's why I have soft spot for it, even if after many much better novels I know that it isn't very great. I have to buy books imported from abroad, because our local publisher just started to give us their translations, and they are going in snail pace. They published only novelizations of the movies and Out of The Shadows so far, but at least they are doing great job with their editions. Just look at those beauties.
Anyway, here is my ranking of novels I read so far from best to worst:
1. Alien: Into Charybdis
2. Aliens: Phalanx
3. Alien: Cold Forge
4. Predator: If It Bleeds
5. Rage War trilogy
6. Alien: Echo
7. Alien: Inferno's Fall
8. Aliens: Music of the Spears
9. Alien: Sea of Sorrows
10. Aliens: Berserker
11. Aliens: Nightmare Asylum
12. Aliens: Criminal Enterprise
13. Alien 3 Unproduced Screenplay
14. Alien: Covenant Novelization
15. Predator: Hunters and Hunted
16. Alien: Prototype
17. Alien: Enemy of My Enemy
18. Aliens vs. Predator: Ultimate Prey
19. Aliens: Infiltrator
20. Aliens: Vasquez
21. Alien 1979 Novelization
22. Alien: Out of the Shadows
23. Aliens: Female war
24. Aliens: Earth hive
25. Aliens: Bug Hunt
26. Alien: Colony war
27. Aliens vs. Predator: Rift War
