Who bought the Alien Vault Book and what do you think of it?

Yes a very interesting and comprehensible book. Makes a nice complement for "Giger´s Alien".

YES I DID BUY IT, IT ALSO BOUGHT "THE BOOK OF ALIEN" IN 1979, I READ THE ORIGINAL BOOK BY ALAN DEAN FOSTER AND LOVED THE FILM AND ALL IT'S BACK STORIES. THE "ALIEN VAULT" BOOK HAS ADDED LITTLE IF ANYTHING TO THE WHOLE "ALIEN" UNIVERSE OTHER THAN TO SCREW US, THE FANS, OF A FEW MORE QUID. THE TRUE ALIENS ARE IN FOX, YOU DON'T NEED TO GO OFFWORLD, OR HACK PHONES, THE WHOLE CORPORATE HIARACHY ARE MURDOCH-PANDERING "ENGINEERS"!!!!!!!!!! MR ANGRY

Held the book in my hands last week at "Chapters", it was $39...I decided against it. there are some fine collectibles in it but there's no info there we don't all already know as far as I can tell. Nice package though. especially the Giger & Scott Inserts.

Yes it is a bit pricey but I still had to have it.

I ordered the book through Barnes and Noble just after Christmas and got it for $24.00. It's nice to have, but it's pretty much a one time read. Not enough technical stuff, drawings, or photos of the Alien. Will probably give it away to my Uncle, who is a huge fan. I owe him one letting me watch Alien at his house when I was a kid. My parents would have crapped a chestburster had they known!

its a great book.it opened my eyes to the alien world a must have

@warchild, since your query "Who is the bald pale skinned dude in sj room?" was shut down and there is no search feature on this board yet, here are a few links discussing the blue dude.....also, Google works well... If you find something new about this unidentified blue guy (we all have our own theories), please share!
