Alien vs. Predator: Armageddon by Tim Lebbon
3.0
Tim Lebbon remains consistent in his writing and offers a fun summer read with the Rage War trilogy. The third book shakes things up ever so slightly by offering the perspective of the enemy throughout, questionable motives and all, while escalating further into all out *you guessed it* armageddon. It's hardly original but stays enjoyable nonetheless.
All in all The Rage War novels are a very entertaining entry into AVP series as a whole and arguably better compared to what we've seen from this particular franchise on the big screen. That said, as fun and competent as these novels are you're never going to see these floating around on any top 100 sci-fi lists though. They're predictable from start to finish and never amount to anything other than mere guilty pleasure. Go in with moderate expectations and you'll enjoy the ride. Probably.
