Honestly I felt like it was a bit over hyped?

I definitely could have done without the rape when initially kidnapped.

it was.... Fine.

I absolutely loved everything about this book! I have never in my life. Read a book that was this short, but had this level of world building and character development. Plus, I haven't laughed that hard in such a long time.

The first book in the Ice Planet Barbarians series by Ruby Dixon explores what happens when a group of women are abducted from Earth and then abandoned on an icy planet.

In this first tale we meet Georgie, a 22-year-old who went to sleep in her own bed and wakes up in a spaceship surrounded by other 22-year-old females, in good health, who are not pregnant and have no family close by. She learns that one woman in the group was given a hearing device to understand what their captors are saying. After some traumatizing experiences and revelations, they are left to fend for themselves on a strange planet, one they initially hope is Earth but very quickly find out it is not. Georgie, being unwittingly named the leader, strikes out in search of supplies, or help. She encounters a barbarian of the icy planet they have landed on, and after a unique greeting and some awkward attempts at interspecies communication she convinces him to take her to the other women. Their tale is spicy, entertaining, and (surprisingly to me) kept me wanting to know "what's going to happen next"?

I am totally invested in what happens to these women and I'm looking forward to the next book in the tale.

I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook. It's the perfect blend of plot, spice, and the adorable-ness that is Vektal. I was swept into the world from the very beginning and I literally cannot wait until I start the next book. (03/2024)

Great for an easy read. As far as alien smut goes it was lighthearted and enjoyable. Not much to it.

MASSIVE TRIGGER WARNING: Within the first three chapters, a side character is brutally r**ped while imprisoned, and the main character is s*xually assaulted by her future love interest while she is unconscious. Not a single video review I had seen even remotely mentioned this. I was not prepared and it really messed me up. I simply could not finish.
