Rec for a pred-heavy book?

From what I'm reading in reviews, a lot of the Predator books focus quite a lot on the humans, whereas I'm wanting something with a lot of predator content. I loved AvP: Prey, and have also read Hunter's Planet and War and liked those also, but I ended up skipping most of the human stuff in War aside from Machiko. I was really into all the sections from Dachande's perspective in Prey, and could happily read a whole book of that, although it probably doesn't exist. I'm hoping for something like that but would also enjoy just plenty of non-hostile interactions with human characters. Thanks in advance!

Predator: South China Sea has a lot of stuff from the Predator's point of view, although the book has been out of print for some time now and copies on the secondary market are stupid-expensive. I can't recall if Titan was going to reprint it, though.

I seem to recall the 'Predator 2' movie novelization having quite a bit from the Predator's POV as well.

Indeed. We get a lot of what the predator is thinking and feeling during the novel.

It's been a long time since I read them, but I'm pretty sure 'Predator: Forever Midnight' also had a bunch of Predator POV stuff - but be warned that it's the controversial "Hish" stuff that deviated a lot from existing Predator "lore" and pissed a lot of fans off, so read that at your own peril I guess.

I can't remember if 'Predator: Flesh and Blood' had stuff from the Predator's POV. I want to say yes, hopefully someone else can confirm that.

The Predator: If It Bleeds anthology book has a couple of stories with Predator POV stuff. Mainly the "Rematch" story which is actually a sequel to the Predator: Turnabout book. Overall the book treats Predators a bit better than most Predator books in general, they don't die that often.

Oh yeah I forgot about that one, Forever Midnight got parts from predator pov but it humanizes the predators way too much and they act like space slavers, not hunters.

It did - and it was the Hish - but much better handled in Flesh and Blood.
