Novelizations
Original novels
= Predator: Big Game (1999)
=U.S. Army Corporal Enoch Nakai must rediscover his Navajo roots in a fight to the death with an alien Predator.
= Predator: Forever Midnight (2006)
=Parts of the story are told from the viewpoint of the Predators. In particular the author John Shirley had to expand the Predator language and created his own name and culture for the Predator race, the "Hish."
= Predator: Flesh and Blood (2007)
=Andar Ciejek, son of the patriarch to one of the wealthiest (human) families, was a simple man trying to create a life separate from the greed tainting his family. But, when the patriarch dies, Andar is brought back into the fold for the reading of his father's will, but another family member has led the ruthless and blood-thirsty Predators to the planet where the will-reading is taking place in the hopes that they would kill every last living Ciejek and leave him to be the sole heir, but he may have gotten more than he bargained for.
= Predator: Turnabout (2008)
=Alaska is lovely in the spring: the plants start to come back, the snow begins to melt, the bears start to come out of hibernation... it's all a bugle call to poachers across the world hoping to sack the biggest game they can find. And the Predators are no different.
= Predator: South China Sea (2008)
=A prize hunt has been arranged on a Southeast Asia island. When the compound is attacked and security personnel killed, the hunters battle for survival.
= Predator: Incursion (2015)
=Predator ships stream into human space in unprecedented numbers. The Colonial Marines, controlled by Weyland-Yutani, respond to the incursion, thus entering the Rage War. Incursion is the first novel in The Rage War trilogy by Tim Lebbon, which continues in Alien: Invasion and concludes in Alien vs. Predator: Armageddon. The trilogy as a whole centers around an invasion of the mainstream human civilization by the Rage, a dissident human faction that has successfully weaponized the Xenomorphs, with the Predators caught in the crossfire.
= Predator: If It Bleeds (2017)
=An anthology celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Predator franchise, If It Bleeds includes sixteen brand new, never before seen stories—exclusive to this collection—featuring the Predators throughout space and time. Based entirely on the original films, novels, and comics, Predator: If It Bleeds (a quote from the original movie) reveals the Predators stalking prey in 12th Century Japan, 9th Century Viking Norway, World War I, Vietnam, the Civil War, Hurricane Katrina, and the modern day, as well as across the far reaches of future space.
= Predator: Stalking Shadows (2020)
=This official prequel novel leads into the new PlayStation 4 video game Predator: Hunting Grounds from IllFonic. This novel is a bridge between Predator 2 and the current day continuity. U.S. Marine Scott Devlin takes on a new assignment that begins with the clean-up of a Los Angeles combat scene revealing what appears to be alien weapons and tech. His next mission, to an equatorial jungle, seems like an assault on a drug cartel until his team finds human bodies, skinned and suspended from the trees. Justifiably freaked out, Devlin digs deeper and discovers hidden truths, clandestine agencies, savage opponents... and an unexpected ally.
= Predator: Eyes of the Demon (2022)
=Another anthology like If It Bleeds. Includes fifteen new stories exclusive to the collection.
