Summary:
Post-movie. "Getting off the planet is proving as impossible as she thought it would be, but that doesn't stop Royce any."

Review:
Following the events of the movie, Isabelle and Royce continue to gather any humans dropped in as prey, fighting the predators, attempting to get off-world. The other humans are sometimes just as much a danger to them as the predators, and they only have each other to rely on in the desperate situation.

The Isabelle POV is excellent; it really captures her humanity and iron will, and the story captures the tension and action of the film its based on.

The warning for attempted rape is for a scene in which one of the original characters attacks Isabelle; both the way she and Royce react to the scene are very in character, and I liked the way Isabelle is shown as being capable of taking care of herself.
