Review: Ice Planet Barbarians Part 1: Stolen

Ice Planet Barbarians Part 1: Stolen by Ruby Dixon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hoooooot, but the minus side...or rather the one I was struggling with, just a bit; was the fact that their body differences were reminding me a lot of a mix between Alien(The real movie, like Sigourney Weaver going nuts and meeting the queen...yeah that one) and Avatar ( given that they're blue, even though blue is my favorite color...not a clue why all the aliens and cyborgs are going with that color skin so far. XD)

So I was picturing like a mix of Thundercats(haha, and I wasn't even a fan of it XD)

The good thing is that, I didn't have to focus on it , a lot...'cause I was much focused in the plot and the good parts, so yeah ! not actually a huge problem.

This one was one of those books , I can't seem to put down, 'cause seriously? I was really dying to know what the ...was gonna happen with both of them, 'cause, hello? she was facing death in her near immediate future.

So? a VERY good book
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, here’s the thing a group of girls has been stolen from planet earth for tiny, awful green men and they pretend to sell them to the best bid in a foreign planet, but luckily everything goes wrong and they crash into an antartic planet where they’ll have to go all survivor mode in order to make another day. And here’s where everything changes

GEORGIE
Somehow she happens to be the leader of the group of girls and the one with the assignment to go get help in a unknown planet, so she’ll play from damsel in distress to a seductive vixen in order to get it.

VEKTAL
A big, blue, lion-like, with tail and horns, (Kind of handsome , I guess) alien that goes into his own hunting while waiting during all his life to find his mate, the thing is that he doesn’t find her by himself but due to a little organism that lives inside of him, that happens to just know that the woman is his mate…so figure his surprise when he comes to find a soft tiny creature hanging from his trap.
And things go like this:


SHE-------------------------------------------------------------HE

Useless communication, but sign communication

She just knows that the guy----------------------------His little ---------------------------------------------------------minion knows that she ------------------------------------------------is his mate
makes her feel pleasure like no other

+ SEX

Uses it like a weapon to get him to help her----------His tactic to -----------------------------------------------------let her know she is HIS-------------------------------------------------- mate

(ME if anyone asked)
I’m like, hello? The dude has horns, mane, tail and 4 fingers!!!!
Yuhu?, ringing anything to anyone?!!

So she does get his help, she gets to know his people, where he happens to be their chief, and the guys all go like


‘cause they see HUMAN+FEMALE=POSSIBLE MATE, so, of course they’re gonna be more than thrill to help them!!, while Georgie goes like:

“Wait, what? This isn’t open season on human ladies!”

So they all go crazy, horny crazy, I mean, at least the soon to be mated ones…

“He just asked if you want to mate here,”Kira says, voice full of disbelief.
“Oh shit,”Liz says. “That’s what held her up. Alien nookie.”
My face feels flaming hot. I jerk my hands back.
“Here we are far enough away that when they hear you scream with pleasure, they will not think to come and rescue you.”

aww , how thoughtful, hahaha!


But seriously, if you ask me… that was a great reading, I couldn’t let the book down!
I’ve read a bunch of alien romances and all that, but what was fresh for me was, that these guys weren’t and advanced race, rather a one to be civilian at its best… so how they try to communicate at each other, to feed each other… to survive…that was great ‘cause it actually made me feel like they really were in another planet, not in some sort of matrix-state o anything like that, where everything goes just right!
