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.

GOD WILLS IT!

It all started with a Viking raid: When he is captured and forced into slavery, Aillil the Irishman must pretend to be a priest or die. Better to be a high-value priest than a low-value corpse, he thinks, and so it happens that a failed novitiate (he loved women too well) is taken up by Norway’s first Christian lord, Erling Skjalgsson to bring the Word to his people.

Ironically, though “”Father””Aillil is as phony as a three-dollar psalm, he and he alone must convert a fiercely pagan people to the gentle teachings of Christ—and they don’t want to hear about it. Nor do their “”gods,”” who are all too real, and all too liable to do something horrible to those disturbing their divine peace.

It’s going to take a miracle for Aillil to succeed, or even survive, but fortunately God (the one true God, not those pagan demon creatures) is on his side. . . .

“A great tribute to the indomitable spirit of America.”

“This is a must-read novel for all fans of military/geopolitical action books.”

A Dangerous Alliance

European Leftism. Chinese communism. Islamic Sharia law. Russian avarice.

The leaders of these radical and aggressive ideologies agree that long-held dreams of world domination can never be realized for one reason and one reason alone—America. In a secret meeting in Brussels, a plan surprising in both detail and probability of success is revealed.

A plan to put aside differences and form a temporary alliance.

A plan to destroy America.

A Devastating Weapon

Skepticism evaporates with the unveiling of a new weapon that strikes at the heart of American military might, negating traditional technological advantages.

America Stands Alone

Outnumbered and alone, America stands on the brink. To survive, a Great Generation of Americans will be needed.

But can America still produce greatness?

A Unique Perspective

W. H. Hawthorne was born and raised in Alaska at a time when it was far closer to the America envisioned by the Founders than was the rest of the country. He left his beloved Great Land to pursue a four-decade career designing high-tech robotics for DARPA, NASA, JPO, DOD, DOE, and others.

In The Very Last War, he fuses those experiences to bring to you a story of World War III inundated with realism and plausibility coupled with a fresh and surprising perspective on America.

And lots of really cool new weapons.
