Amazon: Paperback | Kindle
Goodreads: Barbarian Alien (2)
Twelve humans are left stranded on a wintry alien planet. I’m one of them. Yay, me.
In order to survive, we have to take on a symbiont that wants to rewire our bodies to live in this brutal place. I like to call it a cootie. And my cootie’s a jerk, because it also thinks I’m the mate to the biggest, surliest alien of the group.
BARBARIAN ALIEN is a sequel to ICE PLANET BARBARIANS. You do not have to read both in order to understand the plot, but the story will be richer if you do!
Review:
Liz immediately captured my attention. She's my favorite kind of lead. Mouthy and capable of taking care of herself. The last book left off with poor Liz being abducted by her barbarian alien. Ha-ha.
First off there are a lot of warning flags in this book. Kidnapping and such. However, a lot of things that I normally grumble about will be placed to the side. After all this world and premise is about these girls crash landing on this planet and taking parasites into their bodies so they can survive living there. Parasites who's goal is to find compatible mates to make babies ASAP. Not to mention that females are super scarce and the alien men are horny. (In more than one way.)
So yeah. Displace you mind set. True there are some minor flaws in the writing, but I got over it.
Liz's humor just kept me laughing. I laughed everywhere. When people asked me why I was laughing I would just say a funny book. (The few times they kept nagging I told them it was hilarious alien porn.) I also like that Liz doesn't want to just be taken care of by her new alien lover.
There's also more world building and some politics of the alien tribe. I enjoy that there is still a great balance of smutty times and sci-fi bits. Liz is probably going to be hard to beat. I love her so much! This is a fun and easy read. Sometimes you just need hilarious alien porn to make it all better.
Content Warning: Dirty sexual content. Let's be, honest kidnapping. The use of no as yes, which I'm calling out right here. This is breeding erotica.
3/5- Adored it, just a few minor details held it back.
