Aliens: Bug Hunt - Aliens Anthology Announced!

[Xiggz456]

"No Good Deed" went in the non canon pile for me. Not exactly sure why they allowed less-than canon stories in this collection. Odd choice.

The only one I have to say is non-canon is the one set in the Andromeda galaxy, as that breaks even far future Rage War rules about intergalactic travel.

That and it was pretty mediocre story.

Ya I suppose I'm being a bit harsh. Ultimately I've always considered the A/P/AVP as a multiverse with parallel dimensions and alternate timelines. For example in one universe the two AVP movies serve as Wey-Yu's origin story; in a paralell universe Prometheus, Origins and Covenant explain the same backstory. I also consider all the nineties Dark horse comics as a separate timeline that discludes Alien 3 and Resurrection. So following that logic, every story in "Bug Hunt" is "canon" in one of the infinite timelines of a multiverse and I retract my previous post lol

Anybody know if this book was released as a small size novel, or just large size?  Many of the other novels have been released in big and small versions..

Amazon usually lists multiple print variations, and they don't have any other paperbacks than the first release.

Are all the new books now in the large size? What size is the Cold Forge?

[Corporal Hicks]

All of Titan's new novels have been released in a large size. My Cold Forge is large. It's only the novelizations and the Covenant prequel that have only been small releases as far as I know.

[HuDaFuK]

The Out of the Shadows trilogy came in both sizes. I don't recall seeing any of the books since in anything other than the bigger format.

[HybridNewborn]

Interesting. My Cold Forge is small size, same as the novelizations.

[TheBATMAN]

Interestingly in River of Pain the large size has an error with Derek Russell of Fire and Stone given an incorrect name. Only the trade paperback has his correct name.

[Perfect-Organism]

My cold forge is small size too.  Trying to keep the collection neat.  I don't want the big books...

[HuDaFuK]

Huh, didn't realise there was a mini-Forge. That's kinda annoying. Would prefer to have that size.

Anyone know if the different sizes have different ISBNs?

Good to know for the future. Thanks.
