Alien Hunters by Daniel Arenson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Honestly?
There's an amusing juxtaposition of fantasy stereotypes writ large upon a standard Space-Opera.
Sure, I love the musician gig, the chase, the big ship reveals, the wild assortment of strange characters especially a certain little gas-guzzling demon, the big pincers on the big evil alien spacecraft....
But it's all kinda... standard? I love my stereotypes, but this one is pretty much what I think of when I think of Standard Space-Opera. Like it might have been a pretty good and traditional flashy Sci-Fi movie that I'd pretty much forget after having a pretty good time.
Fun and flashy and gone? Pretty much. Fast-paced, clear, and amusing.
Let's have some fun!
