Fans of the Aliens vs. Predator franchise now have even more to look forward to in 2017. In conjunction with the release of the long awaited Prometheus sequel Alien: Covenant, publisher Titus Books will be releasing the film's novelisation on 23 May, mere days after the release of the film. The novelisation will be written by none other than Adam Dean Foster, author of Star Wars: From The Adventures of Luke Skywalker. While that is nothing out of the ordinary, a more surprising development is that the same publisher will be releasing a second novel currently titled Alien: Covenant 2, which is being billed as "The Official Sequel to the Blockbuster Film." Running at 304 pages, Covenant 2 is set for a 26 September release. Unfortunately, that's all we know about it at this time, as no covers or plot details have been unveiled. You can pre-order the official film novelisation here and Alien: Covenant 2 here.
