Earth Hive:
Wilks was a space marine with a near-fatal flaw: he had a heart. Billie
was a child, the only survivor of a far-flung colony outpost. Thrown
together in the last hellish night of an alien invasion, Billie and
Wilks helped each other get out alive. Thirteen years later Wilks is in
prison, and Billie lives in a mental institution, the nightmare memories
of the massacre at Rim seared into her mind. Now the government has
tapped Wilks to lead an expedition to the aliens' home planet to bring
back a live alien. But the competition on Earth to develop the aliens as
a new weapons system is brutal. When Wilks's team departs on their
mission, a trained assassin trails them. And what follows is no less
than guerrilla warfare on the aliens' planet--and alien conquest on
Earth!
Nightmare Asylum:
Wilks, Billie, and Bueller were the last survivors of a devastating
assault on the aliens' home planet. But once their retum to the solar
system made them refugees once more, fleeing Earth and its alien
infestation in a desperate attempt to stay alive. Now, in an otherwise
unmanned military transport, they hurtle through space. Destination:
unknown.
Little do they know that the cargo they carry with them is a legacy of
death that they will ultimately have to face. Nor do they know that they
head toward a remote colony and military outpost. This pocket of
humanity at the very edges of space is at the mercy of a general names
Spears with an agenda all his own. Now Billie, Wilks, and Bueller face a
new nightmare, and it is nothing they could ever have imagined: a gift
of madness from an alien world, unbalanced mind, and the experiences of
a mysterious pilot named Lieutenant Ellen Ripley.
The Female War:
Lieutenant Ellen Ripley awoke from her long journey in space with a hole
in her memory and an overwhelming drive to survive. When she meets Wilks
and Billie, two battered veterans in the war against the alienss she
realizes she's found two comrades in arms--and she's ready to take up
the fight. Only then does she discover the devastating secret that lurks
behind her long sleep. When she, Wilks, and Billie prepare to meet the
aliens head-on to turn a powerful alien queen against her spawn in a
battle intended to save Earth, that secret becomes her greatest
weapon--and her greatest liability. As the fate of Earth hangs in the
balance, Ripley and Billie must come to terms with what it means to be
an alien . . . and what it means to be human.
