I am Zuvok the Terror. Feared soldier of the Trident Alliance. And I will not do housework!

I relish the fury of combat. I love the adrenaline as I kill my enemies. Blood drips from my hands. Until I go too far.

So my commanders send me a foe that I never expected: my bride. A comely, curvy, human woman. A princess. She must be insane. She has to be if she agreed to be my mail-order bride.

But I don't want a bride. Zuvok the Terror will not be tamed. He will not be civilized! He will not hang balloon valances on windows with pastel-hued drapes. He will not dry dishes as she washes them! He will not sweep before he mops the floors!

But then, this tiny human woman does something more powerful than a killing blow from an Odex wielding a power-blade. She gets on her tip toes and wraps her arms around me, squeezing herself to me. She coos. And giggles. And kisses me on my nose. And my heart melts for her.

Zuvok the Terror? More like Zuvok the Terrier. Damn humans.

Contains mature themes.

The entire story sounds like it is read in the voices of Leela and Zapp Brannigan from Futurama. I could not stop listening.

So bad it's good

About the MMC: Zuvok wasn’t a bad guy but there were times that I found him really annoying. I do like that he was able to recognize his idiotic behavior when it was pointed out to him by Princess Alundra.

About the FMC: Alundra was extremely likable if a bit naive. I loved her reaction when she first realized who Zuvok was. She had a great attitude, fantastic spunk and a realistic head on her shoulders.

About the story: I could have done without the huge info dump at the beginning of the book. It was the author’s attempt a world building but a lot of it was unnecessary. The flow of the book was smooth and even paced. I found it really easy to get into the story.

*Cringe Alert*
In a world where women seem to differ greatly in which words we prefer in reference to female genitalia let it be said that I’m not a fan of the word “tw@t”. It was used quite a few times in the story.

Meghan Kelly is a narrator that I’ve come across multiple times. It always takes me a minute to adjust to her style. I’m not sure what it is but at first I always find her narration a bit abrasive. But then, without a doubt, I always come to enjoy her performance. This performance was no different. By the end of the book I was well satisfied by her.

Tristan James has a great voice. I love that he made sure to use a different voice and attitude when speaking the female characters lines. I enjoyed his acting. Zuvok’s braggadocios behavior was clearly portrayed in his performance. Unfortunately Alundra seemed more clueless than demure when James performed her lines.

I have to say, it' s a book you love or you hate! No middleway. The beginning was adjusting to the way the book is written. The first 3 chapters you need to let loose the way a lot of books are written. This one has a lot of Ironie and the way the princess is made alife by the narrator is very good. So please try it. I did not receive this book for free. I bought it.
Happy reading every one, Sidhaeg

Well after seeing the reviews on how bad it was I had to see and i actually loved it. soooooo cheesy and hilarious. I don't think it was meant to be a serious Romance to begin with. But It really made me laugh and go I wish....
you either love it or you don't. I loved it and looking forward to more of this author.

It's so bad but so good.

I love Zuvok ❤️
His irreverent attitude makes me laugh. The story is pretty good and there are several likable characters. Unfortunately the female narrator has a weird inflection that gets irritating fast. But not a deal breaker for me cause I LOVE ZUVOK❤️

Hilarious

I don't feel Athena wrote this to be taken seriously at all, it is what it is and it does it fine. If you go into this expecting character development, yearning and tension filled romance, an interesting fleshed out plot, unique world building with thought provoking themes.... You're not going to get it lol. This is fun smut for the sake of it. The characters have no depth, 0 world building so the tone of this story is literally all over the place and the story is more shallow than a kitty pool but it's fun haha. This felt like a Futurama fanfic.


Tristan was a great voice for Zuvok! He had a horrible female voice but that's not uncommon with duel narrations and he does well enough to keep you listening. Very zapp brannigan coded. Meghan, although I liked the sound of her voice her cadence and inflections were so distracting. Sometimes she'd trail off into Jennifer Coolidge territory that somehow made this read horribly worse yet funnier at the same time. Her male voice is probably the worst I've heard on this app too... The sex scenes with this two... It's a cringy, irritating yet halarious experience.

Rated highly for the vibes only. listen if it's free.
