Alien Nation 4: The Change by Barry B. Longyear

Alien Nation 4
The Change
by Barry B. Longyear
1994 Pocket Books

One of George's former resistance comrade in arms escapes from prison and uses mind control devices to fulfill an oath to kill anyone who has ever known George. George is going through alien menopause and Matt spends most of the the time in the hospital. Buck is skipping class to hang out with Tenctonese elders, who all sound like hippie burn outs.

Nasty enough villain, but the ending felt unfocused. Did not have the feel of the TV show in plotting or tone, and I assume that the cursing, violence, and rape scene wouldn't find it's way on the small screen. Based on a script for the unproduced season two, but not made into a TV movie like others.

Paperback from Amazon
