Ice Planet Barbarians

Good fun. The writing is basic but unobtrusive which is really all I ask for. World building was simple but more in-depth than I expected. Things progressed pretty fast. I thought that a lot of the outlandish decision making was explained well enough to make me accept why they were done. One of my biggest complaints SPOILERS is that she gets pregnant pretty dmn fast! And it's one of my biggest dislikes in books is the unexpected pregnancy trope. And I wasn't a big fan of the symbiont plotline. I felt is was a deus ex machina type of situation. A quick way to make the world as easy for the humans as possible. The language machine too was way too convenient that it just made it cringy. But overall it was fun.
