Indigenous Species:
A decent one. Played into the Predator's honour code a little, and was a strong enough story of survival in the face of extreme danger.

An interesting story. Humans using Yautja tech, Yautja as a prisoner, plus some vengeance stuff for extra conflict. A good story, but not one I'd include in canon.

Blood and Sand
Set in 1933.
This one was interesting. Another very human-centric story, but a heartfelt one. It seemed to have a decent understanding of the Yautja, too. I liked it.

Skeld's Keep
I had my doubts as this one started. We were in a Viking setting, but certain elements didn't seem quite right. I didn't really connect with the Human characters, either. The Predator side of the story was much more interesting. Decent insight into the minds and culture of the Yautja. Overall verdict: good, but could have been better.

Last Report from the KSS Psychopomp
Another fun one. Nothing too crazy. A pleasant future based story. Predator wasn't too prominent, but it worked well for this one. There was another story in the background that could be pieced together from the established clues on this one.

Storm Blood:
This was great. In some ways, the Predator was a background presence, a plot point rather than a character. This worked well for this story, as there were two other threats ongoing. A satisfying ending, too, and it even addressed ways to fit into canon.

Fun story. Well-written (mostly) and felt very true to the Yautja. Honestly, better than the author's entry into the "Big Hunt" anthology. Also one I think fits into my personal headcanon of the shared Alien/AvP/Predator Universe.

Not a fan of Steve Perry's writing style, I've decided. It works for the pseudo-non-fiction of "The Weyland-Yutani Report" but I struggle with it in fiction. Also, not a big fan of this story, though maybe that's because I don't have a connection with the characters from the (non-canon) novel I haven't read that it's a sequel to. Not canon, and a bit meh.

Stonewall's Last Stand:
A fun story set during the American Civil War. Reminded me a little of a comic book story set in the same period. Something of a spiritual successor, perhaps. Definitely one that can fit into canon, though.
