The second novel in the Ice Planet Barbarians series, the international publishing phenomenon--now in a special print edition with bonus materials and an exclusive epilogue! Liz Cramer swears she'll find a way off of this alien planet she's stuck on--then she meets Raahosh, the surliest and stubbornest alien, who won't leave her alone, and she just might be okay with that... 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, grumpiest alien of the group. Raahosh believes the cootie's right, so he steals me away from the group, determined to make me fall for him--or else. He has no idea who he's up against. And if I didn't want his insufferable self so much (thanks, cootie), I'd let him know exactly what I'm thinking. As it is, I'm doing my best to fight this instant attraction. Just because the symbiont thinks we're supposed to be together doesn't mean I have to go along with it. And if we fool around a little, it's merely biology. It doesn't mean I'm in love--or that I'm destined to be his.
Liz lights this book (and the Ice Planets Barbarians setting) on fire
Published by Heck , 1 year ago
I read this book specifically because I hated the main character of Ice Planet Barbarians so much, and wanted a book with the same hot guys and romance but with a decent and likable protagonist. Five stars. Liz has heart and soul and a lot of emotion. She spends the entire first half of the book angry as all hell, which is a completely reasonable response to crashlanding on a barren glacial wasteland. A protagonist with realistic emotional responses makes Barbarian Alien so much more enjoyable than Ice Planet Barbarians. Liz is a real firebrand and gives the story a lot of momentum which the previous book completely lacked.
