Alien: The Weyland-Yutani Report by S. D. Perry is an excellent book on all the Alien movies. It is in a format of an official report on all that happened and a complete understanding of why things went the way they did. The reader learns extra tidbits about the character's lives that isn't told in

the movies. It discusses the life cycle of the alien in more detail, and more about the alien itself. There is plenty about the vehicles, weapons, and places in the movies also. Even the robots and the upgrades. I found it fascinating. These are all the things the movie can't stop and explain to the viewer. The kindle ARC edition is formatted strange but the pictures are excellent and I can't wait to buy the hardcover now to see it the way it is suppose to be. As an Alien fan, I learned so much and I thought I already knew plenty since I have watched these movies a dozen times. Great layout. Great pictures and information. Can't wait to get it. I received this ARC book from NetGalley for a honest review.
