Here are our picks for some of the best sci-fi horror audiobooks of all time.

The A L I E N saga has been my favorite movie series ever since the second installment. This book follows the plot of the extended version of the novel including scenes not seen in the theatrical realease. Apart from that, the writing is clear and easy to follow. Of course there are no surprises since we’ve all seen the movie. I recommend this for those—like me—who are fans of the Ridley Scott movie. Memories of the mivie will be triggered when listening to this novelization.

Peter Guinness handles the narration and does a yeoman’s job.

One of my all time favorite movies with Ripley a heroine that has lived on in my life all these years later. This book added depth to the horror of the movie; made watching it again all the more terrifying.

Better than the movie... almost.

I deeply enjoy the story, Alien is one of my favorite franchises. I feel at the performance could have been a little better, he voice acting under delivered and some key parts. Which is fine, it's not the easiest thing to do, voice acting can be a pain.
