R’jaal’s Resonance

By: Ruby Dixon

Narrated by: Mason Lloyd, Hollie Jackson

Length: 9 hrs and 44 mins

Publisher's summary

R'jaal has waited many turns of the seasons for his khui to resonate, only to be disappointed time and time again. But when he is taken captive by strange beings hiding in the very tunnels of the fruit caves, he wakes up to find himself in a strange underground cage.

Also in the cage? A very pretty unfamiliar human female. She says her name is Rosalind. She makes his khui sing.

It's finally his time.

There's a big problem, though—Rosalind has no khui of her own. And if she doesn't get one soon, she could die.

Contains mature themes.

Finally rjaal gets his happy ending

The books is great! Ruby have a great writing style that hook you right in! This book end the loong wait of character that everyone fan this books was waiting for… for years lol! Great book!

Love is in the air!

Exciting that more people are arriving and more chances for resonating. This is a very good read. Ruby Dixon keeps coming up with better stories.

R'jaal is my favorite blue guy yet!!!!

I absolutely adored R'jaal! He was my favorite blue guy yet!!

He was incredibly sweet, considerate, and sexy AF!!!!

Not Hoth has new blood!!! 🥰

I was starting to think my series (can I say serieses lol) was coming to an end. I'm so glad they can continue with a new cast of characters! I can't wait for the next book to come out. I have to admit, I was hoping we'd be hearing about the first generation of human/sakhui children as they come into adulthood, but maybe that will be the next series. 🤞I loved hearing R'Jaal's HEA. I liked Rosalind even though I was a little tired of hearing the term "fanfic". But I'm sure I have words that I overuse so it just makes her more relatable. She struggles a bit learning that she's a clone, but it's not the main conflict of the story which I appreciated. I'm glad that this book wasn't all about fighting resonance. Those books frustrated me a bit since all of the previous women that received a khui knew what they were getting into. I'm SO happy that Hollie Jackson and Mason Lloyd were brought back to narrate this book and I hope they continue in the next books. I love how they bring these characters to life.

Whaaaat?

I have listened to all the previous ice plant series of books. They all end in resonance and I love happy endings. Ruby is so talented, I didn't see it coming. This book opened the door for a new series which makes me anxious for the next book.

A spinoff of a spinoff of a spinoff

It’s like a six degrees of Kevin Bacon connecting up the various series in the Risdaverse. The only connection to the original Ice Planet Barbarians series is the location of ice planet Not Hoth and Liz and Rahosh, a couple that now resides with the multi-tribe settlement Icehome. That Icehome series is closest to this newest series, with R’jaal and that series’ couples present in the second half. There’s also a connection to the Corsairs series in the clones aspect and the explanation for Rosalind and others ending up on Not Hoth. However, this book was laid out well enough that you could start here (as if learning about the world from Rosalind’s newcomer POV) and still follow along just fine.

I’ve been waiting for R’jaal to find his one and enjoyed seeing how happy everyone was for his HEA. Rosalind’s librarian background and love of fanfic and shipping was fun too. The folks responsible for R’jaal’s and Rosalind’s imprisonment may forecast greater conflict in the rest of the series, but this opening book was pretty low key on angst. Things drag a bit as Rosalind suffers an identity crisis upon realizing she’s permanently stranded. All things considered, however, there were enough things familiar and new to make this latest spinoff a great listen.

New characters

More layers to Not Hoth. New characters connecting the modern world to the barbarians. I really enjoyed this ever expanding universe. Ruby Dixon, does it again
