Alien Hunter

Alien Hunter #1

by Whitley Strieber

A young wife disappears in the night, never to be seen again. There is no evidence of kidnapping—in fact, everything indicates that she left on purpose. Her husband, a brilliant police detective, cannot believe this—but he also can't find her.

Flynn Carroll’s lost love becomes his obsession. He begins amassing a file of similar cases nationwide. His conclusion is unavoidable: somebody is taking people and making it look like they walked out on their own. As Flynn’s case files grow, his work comes to the attention of Special Agent Diana Glass, a member of the most secret police unit on the planet. This police force seeks the most brilliant and lethal criminals who have ever walked free—thieves and murderers from another world.

Without fully understanding what Glass and her team are doing, Flynn steps into a hidden world of extraordinary challenge and lethal danger. The job is the most difficult police assignment ever known to man, but the idea is the same—find the bad guys. Stop them.

[Gregory · Rating 1 out of 5]

A friend of mine told me my summer reading list was too heavy and I needed to read more "beach books." I saw that Goodreads was giving away a copy of Whitley Strieber's new book, the goofily-titled Alien Hunter, so I entered my name and BEHOLD! I got a free book. I was pretty amped about this, because it combined my love of (a) reading, with my love of (b) winning free stuff.

So I started reading it right away and it was pretty all right. Whitley Strieber is the dude who wrote Communion, which I remember was made into a movie with Christopher Walken. Other than that, I didn't really know that much about him.

The book is about this guy, Flynn, who wakes up one night to find that his wife has disappeared. Everyone thinks she just walked out on him but Flynn is convinced that she was abducted. Years go by and he meets Diana, whose husband disappeared under similar circumstances. Together they team up to go hunt some aliens!

They meet up with some other alien hunters and go to Montana to stake out a family they suspect is about to be abducted. There's this sequence that takes place during this massive blizzard and it reminded me a lot of John Carpenter's The Thing, which is one of my favorite movies, so at this point, I'm pretty stoked.

The book starts out with a cool X-Files-y feel. The dynamic between Flynn and Diana isn't exactly the same as the believer/skeptic relationship that Mulder and Scully have, but it's got a similar vibe and I was cool with that because, hey, who doesn't love the X-Files? Jerks, that's who.

But after the whole Montana bit, the book just craps the bed so hard. What starts out as a fun sci-fi premise quickly turns into a more of a conventional thriller kind of thing, with car chases, and gun fights, and computer hacking, and it's just…I mean, I thought there was going to be some serious ALIEN HUNTIN' going on, but it just…it never really happens.

Instead of hunting aliens, Flynn and Diana spend a big chunk of the book hunting a super-smart tiger. They end up in Las Vegas at this casino, where they think the tiger is running around, and at one point, they're like, Maybe we should call Siegfried and Roy, since they know all about tigers and can help us with all of our tiger-related queries.

And at this point, I'm like, if Siegfried and Roy show up and start doing illusions and stuff, I am giving this book five stars.

Because that would be bonkers.

But unfortunately, they don't call Siegfried and Roy. They keep running around, looking for clues and there's more gun fights and car chases.

Now that I think of it, it kind of reminded me of those SyFy Channel movies that have really great titles, like VOLCANO SHARK. But then the whole movie ends up taking place in a trailer park, and there's only two minutes of serious volcano shark action.

The gun stuff is really weird too. If you get a big ol' boner reading about guns, you'll probably dig this book a lot. There's this one passage where homeboy is all, "The trigger longed to be pulled. The gun was a life changer, an engine of evolution. The gun was holy; it was god in metallic form. The gun was freedom."

That's seriously an actual quote.

There's also some weird, casual misogyny tossed around, like when one of the main characters, Mac, introduces himself to Diana by saying (I swear to God), "Who's my rape victim?" And then later on, Mac and Diana end up going steady, as the kids say.

Oh, and there's this one part where Flynn refers to one character as a "gook." And I don't know, I wasn't that cool with that.

And also, Strieber's prose can get real muddled. There's this one passage: "This was a chess game with no board and more than one expert opponent. Or perhaps it was better to say it another way: a chess game with the perp and some other kind of game with the tiger, played by tiger rules, whatever they were.”

So it’s like you’re playing chess against two people, or maybe you’re playing chess against one person, while simultaneously playing another game, like say backgammon, only your opponent is a tiger, and you’re playing backgammon the way you’ve always played, but the tiger is all, “RAWRR, I’ma play TIGER STYLE!”

So in conclusion, in case you can't tell, I wasn't really feeling this book. But if you can get a free copy like I did, then I don't know, you can read it, I guess. Or don't, I don't really care.

I started this book a couple of days ago and was immediately into it. The plot was good, the main character was okay (if a bit frustrating at times...he's one of those "exceptionally intelligent" even genius characters who for some reason is also as thick frozen bean soup).

I like the idea behind the book. Our hero's wife vanishes in the middle of the night, no sign of entry (forced or otherwise). A suitcase is missing and clothes are gone from the closet and drawer. The alarm is armed.

It's obvious she left on her own.

Except our hero insists she wouldn't have.

Soon enough the FBI lets the case drop...but her husband, our hero, Flynn Carrol refuses to let it go. he becomes a one man task-force. Over the next few years he finds other cases like his own...a lot of other cases. People disappear, clothes and a suitcase are gone, but someone insists that the missing person would not, could not have gone on their own.

Then Flynn is contacted by a mysterious group who seems to know a lot "more' about whatever is going on.

We get a nice set up, some good action and the outline of an investigation that promises a good book.

Then for some reason the book simply crashes. It becomes so painfully slow and boringly stilted reading it becomes an act of sheer will. I kept slogging through the endless conversations. The mundane story line that overwhelms the basic plot. The discovery of "our background" that takes place between the male and female protagonists.

I can't stress this enough. I was so bored I was forcing myself to stay with the book.

I don't know what happened. Maybe the writer just had more background for his characters than the book needed but was insistent on getting it into the book. Maybe his "mental picture" of the chase, the hide and seek, the conversations with people they meet was so clear he just had to have it. As I said, I don't know. I only know that the book became so tedious that by the time I was somewhat more than halfway through it I wasn't willing to waste any more of my reading time on it.

If it's you're cup of tea enjoy. I just found if soooooo slow. Sorry if you like this one, please enjoy. it's not one I care for.

wonderful book. I could not put it down. I loved the characters. This was my first book from the author. I believe I will be reading many more.

[Shelley Fearn · Rating 3 out of 5]

I've been a fan of Strieber's books for many years so am disappointed that this his latest (and the start of a new series) is so unremarkable.

The premise is good. Detective Flynn Carroll's wife disappears in the middle of the night with no trace. And although it looks like she took 3 sets of clothes with her, Carroll believes that she didn't go willingly. After investigating similar occurrences Carroll is recruited by a secret unit of the FBI to track down the perp.

What could have been an exciting novel gets bogged down by a meandering plot with a siberian tiger, and a weapons' crazed criminal each becoming focal points in the story.

The next installment, Alien Hunter: Underworld is due out in August. I'll see if Strieber can rescue this series.

I highly recommend Strieber's The Wolfen and The Hunger. Both are terrific crosses between science fiction and horror.

[Louie Simboli · Rating 2 out of 5]

Terrible/Do Not Waste Your Time. This was a big disappointment . The plot was weak and shallow. The plot was never developed. It seems like this book was thrown together in a very short period of time. Maybe Mr. Streiber needed the money or was just plain bored, or both. He mailed this one in.

Police detective Flynn Carroll wakes in the middle of the night to find his pregnant wife disappeared without a trace. He reports her as missing to his department and his cop friends search, but the case looks like she is a runaway and it eventually goes cold. But Flynn keeps pursuing her case along many other similar ones until he becomes an expert in such missing persons and attracts the attention of a secret US federal agency that also investigates them. He is recruited by this agency, which has extraterrestrial connections, and hunts down the perpetrator of his wife's abduction who is, of course, an alien.

This is the premise of Whitley Strieber's Alien Hunter novel. It's basically a cop thriller with an extraterrestrial angle thrown in. That alien aspect of the story is the most valuable part of it for me simply because it reflects Whitley's experiences with apparent alien contact that he has documented in his nonfiction books and on his website. So his depiction of the aliens and how they operate has the feel of UFO anecdotes--mysterious lights, frightening entities glimpsed in the dark, and time-condensed abductions. This adds a "reality" to the alien scenes that make them interesting above the usual such in science fiction stories, but they become more "typical" when he gets down his characters' actual interaction with the aliens. That is, the aliens become less alien and more human in their criminality.

The storyline, despite the alien angle, is pretty much typical for the cop thriller genre--a hard-boiled detective goes searching for the abductor of his wife, finds a sexy partner along the way, handles guns, flies planes, talks tough, and fights it out with the bad guy in the end. Now if you're just really into this genre, and a lot of people are, then you may very well like this book, especially if you're open to the science fiction angle. But it failed for me just because I didn't find the lead character interesting. I didn't find any of the characters interesting, actually, though Mr. Strieber did throw a slight twist at the end concerning the sexy partner that kind of broke the mold.

My best takeaways from this book were the parts of the alien scenes that I detected as being from real UFO stories and from Mr. Strieber's experiences. Also the aliens' use of genetically engineered animals was an interesting component that could have been enlarged. And more, in the midst of the usual thriller plot, Mr. Strieber adds an observation that should have been a major theme but that lost much from not being supported by interesting action and sympathetic characters. This is the feeling of isolation in someone with knowledge of bizarre and appalling situations that are not suspected by the people around him. This is expressed in Alien Hunter in Flynn Carroll's thoughts as he considered the people around him in a store:

He understood the origin of Diana's inner distance. It was having secret knowledge of a larger world that did it. They were innocent, he was not.

I considered this the story's highpoint, and the rest of it didn't measure up.

[Sheng · Rating 2 out of 5]

Considering that Hunters was picked up by Syfy to be produced as a show, I was expecting an excellent book that was exciting and interesting (and probably with great potential for franchising). What I got after reading this book was mainly disappointment.

Hunters starts off promising enough, with the mysterious disappearance of Abby Carroll from her home despite security devices in place. Her cop husband Flynn thus begins his search and investigation into her disappearance. After years of research, he discovers numerous kidnapping cases similar to Abby's and that they are all unsolved. Seemingly getting nowhere with his pursuit of Abby, Flynn is suddenly picked up Diana, a FBI associate, to be part of her taskforce that's investigating the same type of peculiar disappearances. In true FBI fashion, close to zero information is given to Flynn as he is thrust right into the forefront of the FBI's investigations.

What was frustrating for me was that close to zero information was given to the reader as well. For the better part of the book, I had no idea who the enemy was, what did they want, what did the FBI want, what was Flynn even doing and pretty much where the story was even going at all. I really toiled through the first few portions of the book as I struggled to grasp onto whatever morsels of information the plot was willing to reluctantly give up. When the antagonist is finally revealed extremely close to the end, the absurdity of the whole situation almost made me give up totally on the book but somehow I found the strength to finish it.

The characters in this book were somewhat decent. Flynn makes a promising main character to root for but his 200+ IQ is often used as a convenient excuse of explaining his superhuman knowledge of everything and his crazy physical abilities as well. Diana was somewhat sympathetic and slightly interesting but having the two of them as main characters was not much to go on. The aliens or creatures or hybrids or whatever the hell they were as the villains... I don't even know what to say. Just pretty much lost to it all for this part.

Hunters started off promising at the very beginning and failed to build on that till the very end. Maybe it's meant for greater things on television but it didn't work for me on print. 2/5

[Douglas Lord · Rating 2 out of 5]

Oftentimes writers can disguise the complete unlikelihood of their plot—or at least slather it in enough action so that readers don’t notice. Not so here, where the clumsy writing only highlights a towering inferno of inconceivability. After Texas cop Flynn Carrol’s wife vanishes, he concludes that she’s been “taken” by a highly skilled “perp.” Even though her case is dead cold, Flynn implausibly keeps searching for the next seven years. After a few similar instances around the country, “…the most beautiful woman Flynn had ever seen in his life strode through the dead-silent squad room…She might as well have ‘Bad News’ tattooed on her forehead in big red letters”(clumsy). Though this woman, Diana Glass, tells him practically nothing, Flynn winds up joining her super-duper covert investigative team. For a day or two things go well; there’s high-tech tools and macho action (e.g., “they drove off into a rampage of snow”). Then, Strieber reverts to form: While staking out a house, most of the team is killed by the perp who uses a “…trained lion and helicopter with a silent wing.” At least it’s consistently awful, with one scenario that has the two hunting this Siberian tiger through the hallways of Las Vegas’s Sands hotel. VERDICT If you’re determined to read this, start on page 117; I promise you won’t need to flip backwards to figure anything out.

[Horror DNA · Rating 2 out of 5]

The name Whitley Strieber conjures up different things. Back in the early '80s, he was an up-and-coming writer. His first two novels, The Hunger and The Wolfen, were made into big budget Hollywood movies. While Wolfen's been forgotten, The Hunger with David Bowie, Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon remains a cult film today. Then he was abducted by aliens and his writing career never really survived. Since then, he's mainly written books about, or inspired by his close encounters, most notably the book that started it all, Communion: A True Story.

Streiber's latest, Alien Hunter, is a departure from all that, or is it? The book is about a detective whose wife goes missing, and it looks like she just up and left him. He doesn't believe it and begins an investigation that spans years, and he comes across many similar mysterious cases. People going missing who have no motivation to leave, and who are never heard from again. Might they have been abducted, and if so, to what nefarious ends?

Alien Hunter is the first in a new series and a very intense book. Look for non-stop action, a lot of violence and some very interesting bad guys.

The book starts with Flynn Carroll waking up and finding his wife missing. It turns out that there are many missing persons who fit the same profile. They are not unhappy, they pack the same thing, they disappear almost in plain site and they are never seen again.

Flynn is policeman who had looked for clues for years when he is approached to join a unit is trying to catch the people who are doing the kidnapping. Flynn is the main character and he is very obsessive. Diana is the head of the unit Flynn joins and she is really over her head. In addition she is keeping secrets.

When everything starts to go bad Flynn must use all his skills and some people who own him favors to stop the kidnapping.

Look of non-stop action, a lot of violence and the set up for a new series. Action is at the heart of this book and while there is some character development it is just enough to keep the story going. The plot is laid out at the beginning and does not deviate even though there are a few surprises. I don’t think it is a spoiler to say there are aliens here and some of them are very, very bad people. The aliens should be a surprise but because of the title they are not.

This review is based on an uncorrected advance reading copy of "Alien Hunter" that I received for free through Goodreads First Reads.

This novel reminded me of a big-budget, summer blockbuster: If you don't think about it too hard or look too closely at the details, you'll love it.

"Alien Hunter" dives right into the action with Flynn Carroll discovering his wife, Abby, missing from their Texas home. What follows is 300-plus pages of Flynn trying to piece together her disappearance, along with similar kidnapping cases, while spending some time with an secretive government team in some fraught and unusual circumstances.

Flynn is often a walking contradiction: He's a small-town cop, yet an expert in criminal thinking. He's from the deep South, but can survive a blizzard in Montana. He's never worked closely with the FBI, but yet believes he knows exactly how an elite outfit should run. If you just accept all of Flynn's prowess and know-how without trying to figure out how he became so knowledgeable and so capable to handle such diverse situations, it's an enjoyable thrill ride. If you start to try to analyze this book or any of its character motivations or relationships in any way, it all falls apart.

[Clay Kallam · Rating 3 out of 5]

Whitley Strieber has had a long, successful and controversial career, and now the 68-year-old has embarked on a new series about policeman Flynn Carroll, who loses his young wife to an unexplained abduction and finds himself involved in strange and dangerous situations. The title of the book, “Alien Hunter” (Tor, $25.99, 316 pages), is a pretty solid clue as to where the story is going, as of course is Strieber’s back story, which includes several non-fiction books about his interactions with “visitors” that may or may not be aliens.

In any event, “Alien Hunter” is a professionally written action novel with Carroll cast as pretty much the perfect action hero: intelligent, experienced in dealing with bad guys, good with guns, strong, indefatigable and pretty much impervious to pain. There’s a love interest, violence and a plot that stretches incredulity right up to the breaking point but stops just short of complete implausibility.

“Alien Hunter” is book one, and sets the stage nicely for future Flynn Carroll adventures, which will most likely echo this effort – which is to say page-turning action with an alien twist.

[Jeremy Vaeni · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read the hardcover. I quite liked the story and the straight-ahead narrative flow. No subplots; just one man's point of view as he trudges through this twisting ride into a bizarre new life. Kind of a unique style for Whitley and it's a reminder that even the famous writers need to challenge themselves to write in new ways. They usually don't. He does. Much respect for that.

My only real complaint--and I hope they fix this for the paperback--is the editing. Did someone at Tor forget to submit the final edit or what? There are spelling errors in chapter after chapter. It looks self-published in that respect. (Hell, it looks like my first book in that respect!)

Anyway, minor gripe. The story is the thing. And as Whitley Strieber is my favorite author it will come as no surprise that I enjoyed the story and can't wait to see where this series goes.

[Brian Palmer · Rating 2 out of 5]

The main character is a typical thriller's main character -- genius intelligence, studied martial artist, good friendships with wide range of (useful) people, tragic backstory. But he's still working his way through the tragedy -- his wife had disappeared years ago. Although everybody else thinks she left on her own, Flynn Caroll believes she was kidnapped. Thus, when an elite FBI team investigating these sorts of disappearances recruits him...

I was enjoying the book quite a bit at first, up until there's a significant confrontation involving a potential lead, a siberian tiger, and the loss of most of his team. It wasn't distinguishing itself and parts didn't make sense, but it was cinematic and, well, thrilling. After that, though, the book seemed to mostly fall apart. Nothing actively horrible, but it was off the rails and plodding.

[Matthew Wild · Rating 2 out of 5]

Looks like Whitley Streiber set out to write a Bruce Willis movie. The cop who solves crimes in his spare time getting the chance to join an elite team and save the world. . .

It's written like a movie treatment, with fast-paced action and the occasional Exposition Man character to painfully detail the back story.

The book starts out brightly, but soon starts to get seriously muddled as Streiber struggles to get everyone to the set-piece ending. It's fast paced, but the support characters are poorly sketched and keep wandering out of character, the dialogue is wooden, and there are plot holes you could drive a truck through. (Plot spoiler: the tiger at the centre of the hunt seems to have both been stolen and to have been genetically modified.)

I find most science fiction is about the set-up, and falls away after the first third or so. This seems to fall further, faster.

[Valerie · Rating 2 out of 5]

I gave it two stars because the premise was interesting. The rest of the book...not so much. By far my biggest problem with it was the typos. You guys, SO many typos!!! Thankfully, the sparse prose meant there probably weren't as many as there could have been. Character development was non-existent, as well. I'm struggling to remember if there was a time any of the characters spoke more than three sentences at once. The next biggest problem would be the fact that "Alien Hunter" is a misnomer. We meet one for-sure alien, one possible, but know next to nothing about them. I guess it was a ploy to get us to read the next book, but it didn't work for me.

[Michelle · Rating 1 out of 5]

I (barely) got through 5 chapters and even that was hard. I can not bring myself to read further. The blatant mistakes and typo's made it hard to go on (so I didn't). I picked up the book from the library (so glad I didn't buy it) because I enjoy sci-fi and horror and this book had a good premise. But the writing is so amateurish and the editing is non-existent.
Does anyone know how to apply for an editing job at Tor Books? They are obviously in need of one. I have no formal training but, by the looks of it, neither does the current editor.
Bottom line: Don't waste your time or money.

Otherworldly on-world fight for justice

I’d read Whitley Streiber’s book COMMUNION years ago and had no idea he is such a strong storyteller, one that would keep me hooked into this story all the way through to a most satisfying end.

Aliens are here, both the champions of humankind as well as those for whom humanity is a commodity to be enslaved and/or sold for parts on a galactic black market. It’s the latter who steal people in the dark of night and make it look like a situation that cops write off as a willful walk away. There is just one lone alien cop with a small human team trying to shut it down.

It’s a losing battle until they recruit Flynn, an ex-cop whose wife Abby had also been taken. Justice for the innocent mixed with a splash of personal vengeance make for a powerful cocktail, one that the Alien cartel haven’t reckoned with before.

[Lea · Rating 2 out of 5]

Considering I haven’t read a book on aliens, I was really gunning on a new experience and exciting read. I was disappointed. I enjoyed the little the book had to offer about aliens, however it was lacking in the department. I feel like this book was more in the crime section than fantasy. The author gives a very descriptive image for each gun used, but what happened to the aliens. I forced myself to finish the book constantly looking for a bigger climax in the end. Needless to say I was still disappointed. On top of the lack of aliens, I was really thrown by the random love between Diana and Mac. What the hell happened there? She despised him and next she’s he’s girlfriend? And she even tells Flynn, “Well he loves me”. Well you know that’s all that matters...UGhh.

[Debra Omiatek · Rating 4 out of 5]

Flynn loses his wife under suspicious circumstances. After years it turns out he is not the only one. An undercover and covert division of the FBI recruits him. Flynn discovers that aliens are on earth and kidnapping young and highly intelligent or gifted people. He subsequently finds the individuals responsible and learns that his wife is dead. He encounters technology and lifeforms that stagger the mind. Flynn perseveres in his mission as he realizes the human race is at stake. The story line is great. The character development is excellent. The action is intense. The premise of a life force entering the body is intriguing. I would highly recommend the novel.

[Lori · Rating 3 out of 5]

Rather than use it as an reason to fall apart, Flynn's wife's disappearance is taken as a chance to become better, stronger, smarter. His free time is spent searching for clues or training to be the best. When he's approached by someone who offers him the opportunity to go after those responsible, Flynn jumps at the chance, and into a mystery he could never have imagined.

Maybe 3.5 stars, but parts were just a little too campy, too sixties or seventies sci-fi to be entirely believable. Not sure if I'll 'hunt' up any of the others in the series or not.

[David Wingert · Rating 3 out of 5]

“Alien Hunter” is book one in Whitley Strieber’s Alien Hunter series. The story follows a small-town police detective’s search for his missing wife. It looks like she walked out on him, but he knows she never would. He becomes an expert in missing person’s cases and finds a pattern. His life takes a turn for the bizarre when he is recruited to a team tracking the same types of cases. He discovers that aliens are behind the missing persons cases and none of their victims are alive. It took me a bit to get into, but overall, I enjoyed it.

Excellent

Excellent books. Packed with good stuff to hook you line and sinker. Sometimes the dialogue can be hard to track and tell who's saying what, and the action can be a little rushed at times. Sudden changes between things like thought and action, that could use a little more in transitions to make the change standout. Overall though an excellent book and I will be reading more of the series.

[Amori Nauman · Rating 3 out of 5]

This isn’t my usual genre, but I enjoyed reading it. It was fast-paced and wasn’t overly alien that it was off-putting for someone new to the genre. Overall, I liked it. The romantic developments left much to be desired substance-wise, as they were very superficial, but for a detective-turned alien hunter novel, it was mostly enjoyable.

[Cheryl · Rating 3 out of 5]

A bit cheesy but a quick, action-packed read. Like other reviewers here, I would've liked to have seen less about the tiger and more about the aliens. It's the first book in a series, so I guess more will be revealed in the next book.
