Predator: Big Game
(novel)
Writer: Sandy
Schofield (Adapter), John Arcudi
The Slayer and the Slain.
A modern Navajo warrior follows the trail of his people's most
savage legend come to life.
Deep in the rugged New Mexico desert, a strange aircraft has
landed. In response, the commander of a nearby army base sends
out search patrols. What he doesn't know is that an alien Predator
has arrived, hunting for human prey. But Corporal Enoch Nakai,
a Navajo soldier, sees the creature in action - his buddy slaughtered
in a blinding flash - before narrowly escaping with his life.
For Nakai, it is a Navajo legend come back to life: the return
of the Horned Monster, who was destroyed by the hero Nayenezgani,
the mythical Monster Slayer. Shunned by his comrades, Nakai knows
there is only one hope. He must rediscover his Navajo roots by
following in the Monster Slayer's footsteps. Using the wisdom
of his ancestors, Nakai will confront the Predator in a final
battle worthy of legend. But this time, will the hero emerge
the victor?
