Larry at OFBlog on Tie-In Fiction
Larry has read a few media tie-in novels and posted his thoughts here:http://ofblog.blogspot.com/2008/12/reading-tie-in-fiction-outsiders.htmlGlad Predator came off well, although had hoped someone might comment on the strange-ass alien virus that plays a role therein.Predator was a renovation of the familiar. If offered an Aliens novel it would be a totally different reading experience as I have some pretty radical ideas in mind. I have wanted to work out a fairly intense space opera in the Aliens universe for some time. (This would then be my last tie-in novel. And I could never do a Star Wars novel--I am in awe of anyone, like Stover, who can handle all that backstory and still move forward.)
