Barbarian by Juno Wells, Kim Fox

3.0

So I accidentally managed to start rereading this after downloading on kindle unlimited again and as I gave it a second go through and appreciated this so much more this second time around so I am upping my rating slightly.
With a three-year gap between maybe, I'm just more attuned to embracing all that is weird and wonderful and this certainly has that in absolute spades no contest.
So brief recap Avery and her friend are kidnapped from a movie theatre (or cinema if your British like me) by aliens and not liking their current fate manage to hijack the spacecraft and with the assistance of an onboard robot Tom land it on the planet Zandipor.
Here they get chased by a vicious scary T-Rex fall into a dangerous raging river and get separated from each other.
Avery is then rescued from her dire fate by a massive brawny and blue alien native wannabe smurf called Turic.
So this was a really funny one that doesn't take itself to seriously, it was all very tongue in cheek almost slapstick at times and a whole lot of fun.
The Blue aliens are not the brightest bunch and that includes Turic.
But though he may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer he was extremely sweet even when he was over sharing also very enthusiastic to one and all, especially when discovering Avery's Culip and his heart was definitely in the right place.
This was surprisingly enjoyable but silly and definitely non-serious.
