Book description
If you loved the first book, you're in for a treat-the audio version of Barbarian Alien crackles with the same addictive energy, but with even more sass. Picture this: twelve humans stranded on a frozen alien world, forced to bond with a "cootie" symbiont that's basically a body-wiring jerk. And oh yeah, it declares you the destined mate to the grumpiest, most brooding alien in the bunch. Ruby Dixon's writing shines in audio, especially with the narrator nailing that sassy, exasperated voice of our heroine as she's dragged into this chaotic, icy romance. The humor hits harder when you hear the cootie's snarky commentary ("You're the mate? Really?") and the alien's low, rumbling growls. It's impossible not to grin while listening-especially when the heroine's snarky inner monologue clashes with her very real, very flustered reactions. You don't need to read Ice Planet Barbarians first (though it's fun to revisit), but diving into this sequel feels like catching up with old friends who've just gotten into the most gloriously ridiculous situation. The pacing is perfect for audio-short, punchy moments that keep you turning pages (or pressing play). It's pure, unapologetic escapism: think Star Wars meets My Big Fat Greek Wedding, but with aliens who'd rather rip your head off than admit they like you. By the end, you'll be laughing, sighing, and already craving the next book. This isn't just a romance-it's a joyride you'll want to share with everyone.
