A review by shereadytoread
Alien: Seventh Circle by Clara Carija, Phillippa Ballantine

adventurous tense

3.75

This is a solid sci-fi adventure! There is a little less xenomorph action than I would want but a solid plot line of the xeno experimentation that we see in the films. I am excited to see if this will be a continued arc. I would love to follow these characters on further missions.

I liked Mae’s character arc and how they tied the two timelines together.  The timelines are not terribly far apart, which kept the story pacing pretty similar no matter which timeline you were in.

Probably the biggest issue for me was having dual timelines but no indication at the beginning of each chapter which timeline they were in until you read through.
