Yeah it is quite a desirable book amongst Alien fans but does go for stupid money nowadays.

Mind you it is 20 odd years old & was never reprinted, so I think I'll hold on to mine not that I would ever sell it anyway.

I know what your sayin SJ, me & my best mate saw Aliens twice at the cinema when we were 16.
My mate couldn't get enough so some time later he order the big box video from his local rental store for the princely sum of £75!

I would not sell it either.

I glanced at the book and it spells Victoria Cartwright's name as Cartright. That put me off a bit, plus the author has worked for Empire, so the good review might have been a favour for an old colleague....
