| Re: Most unique/interesting aliens For me it would have to be the sea devils. The others were not from here but these things could just walk out of the sea anywhere. Kept me from going near a beach for the last 30 years! |

| Re: Most unique/interesting aliens It's difficult to find, I know (I've just tried!) and realised in order to find it, if you go to Google and type in 'Hooloovoo Hitchhiker's' the first site to appear has a list of the races that appear in the book, and Hooloovoo is there. But perhaps it is also in The Neverending Story...I can't remember that but I can definitely remember it being in HHGTTG! |

| Re: Most unique/interesting aliens I don't know if they're precisely aliens, being hermaphrodite humans, but the Gethens of LeGuin's The Left Hand of Darkness have always stayed with me. As for out and out aliens, the Tyr of The Madness Season, by C.S. Friedman are quite good. The group mind gestalt thing being how they do interstellar travel is quite interesting. |

| Re: Most unique/interesting aliens generally the facehuggers off the aliens series. just the idea they could be hiding anywhere and they jump at your face with thier finger-like legs. Many nightmares since then. |

| Re: Most unique/interesting aliens Ah, yes, I remember those...And then for weeks after seeing the film, I'd go around the playground at school, leaping out at people and holding my hand over their face! Ah, yes...I was a strange child (I can already hear some Chron members saying "was?"):D |

| Re: Most unique/interesting aliens I had no trouble finding the Hooloovoos in Hitchhiker's... I can find them pretty quickly in the actual novel. But I'm trying to figure out if they appeared in the Neverending Story... I know... I'm probably mistaken... Still... |
