This audiobook was withdrawn shortly after its release with no reason given.
There is a howler of a mistake which should have been spotted before it made it to release regarding how long Ripley was in hypersleep. It’s a dumb mistake, but withdrawing the entire book seems extreme…
The first-draft Alien screenplay by William Gibson, the founder of cyberpunk, turned into a novel by Pat Cadigan, the Hugo Award-Winning “Queen of Cyberpunk.”
William Gibson’s never-before-adapted screenplay for the direct sequel to Aliens, revealing the fates of Ripley, Newt, the synthetic Bishop, and Corporal Hicks. When the Colonial Marines vessel Sulaco docks with space station and military installation Anchorpoint, a new form of Xenomorph appears. Written by Hugo Award-winning novelist and “Queen of Cyberpunk” Pat Cadigan, based on Gibson’s never-produced first draft.
The Sulaco-on its return journey from LV-426-enters a sector controlled by the “Union of Progressive Peoples,” a nation-state engaged in an ongoing cold war and arms race. U.P.P. personnel board the Sulaco and find hypersleep tubes with Ripley, Newt, and an injured Hicks. A Facehugger attacks the lead commando, and the others narrowly escape, taking what remains of Bishop with them.
The Sulaco continues to Anchorpoint, a space station and military installation the size of a small moon, where it falls under control of the military’s Weapons Division. Boarding the Sulaco, a team of Colonial Marines and scientists is assaulted by a pair of Xenomorph drones. In the fight Ripley’s cryotube is badly damaged. It’s taken aboard Anchorpoint, where Ripley is kept comatose. Newt and an injured Corporal Hicks are awakened, and Newt is sent to Gateway Station on the way to Earth. The U.P.P. sends Bishop to Anchorpoint, where Hicks begins to hear rumors of experimentation-the cloning and genetic modification of Xenomorphs.
The kind of experimentation that could yield a monstrous hybrid, and perhaps even a Queen.

For anyone wondering, this is similar to the plot of the audio drama produced a few years ago, but that was based on a later draft of this script.
This novelization is based on the first-draft, before the bean-counters demanded re-writes to “make it cheaper”

Many thanks for this. I was unaware that this even got an audiobook, so I greatly thank you.
As a big fan of this series I was disappointed when there wasn’t an audio release. I was apparently wrong and there’s been one that’s now lost to time.
This is an archival piece right here. Doing a good service for us all!
If it ever becomes available again I’m 100% going to pick it up like all of the other books.
