Titan's original Alien novels start with the 2014 trio, Out of the Shadows, Sea of Sorrows, and River of Pain, then run through later books such as Colony War, Inferno's Fall, and standalones like Uncivil War and Cult. The list is original Titan prose, newest release year first, including the Marine anthology Aliens: Bug Hunt, Tim Lebbon's Alien: Invasion, and Pat Cadigan's novel of William Gibson's unused Alien 3. Official film novelizations stay on their own shelf.
