"Sevastopol's a supply depot in the region. With no time to lose, they leave the planet and head to Sevastopol Station where they hope to find help. Those familiar with Alien won't be too surprised when things turn sour and one of the Anesidora crew gets attacked by a facehugger.
Altering course, the Anesidora goes to LV-426, the last known location of the missing ship. November 2137, the crew of the salvage ship Anesidora discover the flight recorder of the commercial space tug Nostromo, which had now been missing for 15 years. However, there had yet to be a title covering Ellen Ripley's lost years, those being her 57 years absent in hypersleep aboard the Narcissus.
Titan Books have published some terrific titles in the Alien catalogue, my favourite being Alien: River of Pain. "Dallas wants me on the Nostromo, and they just took on a big contract to bring cargo back from Thedus." However, what we as viewers never got to see was Amanda's own personal journey. Burke, junior executive for the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, reveals that Amanda Ripley-McClaren died at the age of 66, two years prior to Ellen being found in deep space.
One of the saddest things about Alien isn't that Ellen Ripley lost her crew-mates aboard the Nostromo at the hands - or jaws - of a vicious killing machine, it is the heartbreaking fact that she never returned home to Earth in time for her daughter's Eleventh birthday, and that she never got to see Amanda "Amy" Ripley EVER again! In Aliens DIRECTOR'S CUT we get to view the moment when Carter J. Published next week by Titan Books, and based around the video game of the same name, Alwyn Ash read Alien: Isolation by Keith R.
