So i LOVED this! the story of how Lumen a woman from Earth was abducted and experimented on until she was sold to a slave colony of some sort. She is offered as a prize to whoever wins in a battle to the death! Venomous wins and has the "right" to claim Lumen as his own. What he interprets as a very prized and treasured gift is seen by her as the most heinous act one person can commit against another. All while not being able to communicate with each other. Lumen comes to rely on Venom in this alien world and he sees her as his chosen mate and would do anything for her. In his own way he treats her as a princess as much as he can in the circumstances that they are in.

Okay I had fun! There were definitely hard topics but overall enjoyable
By absolutely every metric I can think of, I should have hated this book. And yet I was HOOKED and read it pretty much straight for three days in a row. After a year and a half of reading practically nothing.
Anyway, it leaves me conflicted on how to rate it. In just the most basic measurement of quality, sentence construction was awful--to the point where, multiple times, I had trouble following the meaning. There were continually continuity, POV, grammar, pronoun, and other errors to wade through. The first quarter of the book is brutal to read, and it is dub-con through and through.
And yet. There has to be some recognition for world building and characterization that can make me read through literal torture?
I'm just going to leave this unrated because I'm still mulling over the experience myself. But any potential readers should definitely research CWs and proceed with extreme caution.

I can't believe I subjected myself to this story.
Be prepared for reverse harem with aliens who get their characteristics from snakes. Did I say I hate snakes? I do!!! Probably why I couldn't really get over their appearance. Aside from that, no matter what, I couldn't like Lumen because she's as far from my favorite type of heroine as possible.
