“Kasyanov, I think I’ve made it pretty clear,” Lachance said. “Our attitude controls is damaged beyond repair, retro capability is down to thirty percent. Several containment bulkheads are cracked, and there’s a good chance if we initiate thrust we’ll just flash-fry ourselves with radiation.” He paused briefly.“We do still have coffee, though. That’s one positive.”

Tim Lebbon,
Alien: Out of the Shadows
“I realised that everyone and everything out there had a story, and that most stories would never be told.” ― Tim Lebbon, The Silence
“He had found his monsters, and now was the time to leave them behind.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“All her life she had known that books were living things, not just a convergence of concept and ink, intellect and paper. They did not breathe or think, but they grew and gave a sense of potential so much larger than whatever was written on their pages.” ― Tim Lebbon, Dawn
“Standing just behind them, pretending to be a part of their group and yet so obviously not, was a shape that did not belong.” ― Tim Lebbon, Into the Void
“Antibiotics, viral tabs, painkillers, sterilisation spray,” Kasyanov said. “Other stuff. Bandages, medicines, contraceptives.Hoop raised an eyebrow.“Hey. Forever is a long time.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“We’ll start a whole new human race,” Hoop quipped.“With respect, Hoop, I believe Ripley would eat you alive.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“Level 4,” Lachance said. “Lingerie, footwear, monsters, and beasties.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“Pain was a difficult concept to conjure in memory, Hoop had said. Like tasting the best cake ever. Such thoughts only really meant anything when the tasting-or the pain- was happening.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“Pride is a dangerous indulgence.” ― Tim Lebbon, Into the Void
“I am the Reverend, the note said in a spidery scrawl. Would you like to join my flock of the Hushed?” ― Tim Lebbon, The Silence
“Everyone was doomsdaying today. *” ― Tim Lebbon, The Silence
“A Je’daii needs darkness and light, shadow and illumination, because without the two there can be no balance. Veer to Bogan, and Ashla feels too constraining, too pure; edge toward Ashla, and Bogan becomes a monstrous myth. A Je’daii without balance between both is no Je’daii at all. He, or she, is simply lost.” ― Tim Lebbon, Into the Void
“On the way there hoop had talked to him about pain, telling him that it was a fleeting thing, a physical reaction to damage that he knew would do him no harm, and that afterward he wouldn't actually be able to remember what the pain. Had felt like.” ― Tim lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“She fell, rolled, kicked out with one boot. The alien tripped over her leg and went sprawling, spilling one queen’s egg onto its side. Ripley screamed in pain as her wounded leg was jarred, but then she was standing again, aiming the charge thumper and firing her last shot into the monster’s face.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“Maybe somewhere on the Nostromo there had been a similar scene, with Dallas hanging there, stuck in place like the victim in a massive spider’s dense webbing.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“I know I am an android, but I feel so ... happy.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Invasion
“quickly the fear was replaced with rage.” ― Tim Lebbon, Alien: Out of the Shadows
“Humans crave knowledge, and when that craving ends, we are no longer human.” ― Tim Lebbon, Fallen
