Earth Boys Are Easy

Villains in Space, Book 1

De: C. Rochelle

Narrado por: Gabriel Michael, Nick J. Russo

Micah

What's a superhero to do when his own family sees his powers as unimpressive and he's fifth in line for the throne?

Set my sights on getting space married to a hot alien, of course! For science.

Ziggy Andromeda is a skinsuit-stealing mercenary who's so far out of my league, he might as well be in another galaxy, but there's nothing I love more than a challenge.

And his spaceship has only one bed!

Unfortunately, a home planet conspiracy is threatening our besties-with-benefits situationship, along with my dream of putting a Saturn-sized ring on it and locking Ziggy down for good. Rude.

I came for a deep space adventure with my hot-bod bodysnatcher, and I intend to complete my mission, no matter what.

For science!

Ziggy

Out of all the supes on this sad little floating rock, Micah Salah has impressed me the most.

I've never let anyone as close to me as he is—for their protection and mine—but I can't seem to resist Micah's gravitational pull.

Plus, he smells like goddamn candy. He probably tastes like candy… No. Bad Ziggy.

Unfortunately, this superpowered Earthling has not only joined me on assignment but in my bed. This wouldn't be a problem if my true form hadn't already claimed him as my mate, even though I suspect I'm nothing but a temporary detour on his intergalactic travels.

Too bad I'd rather live inside him. Permanently.

I'm determined to respect Micah's personal space, even if the forces conspiring against us make me want to tighten my tendrils and never let him go.

Because he's mine.

Forever.

Earth Boys Are Easy is book one in the new Villains in Space series, and is an idiots-in-love tale, where the spice heats up quickly but the emotions are glacially slow, set in space with only one sleeping pod and an entire skinsuit closet full of alien accessories. Things are gonna get weird, but if you're here for it, dock yourself to my spice station and hang on for the ride!

While the events in Villains in Space take place after the Villainous Things series, you can start your adventure here before orbiting back to the series that started it all.

kind of weird but totally entertaining!

There were a lot of unknown concepts in the story but it had a good character development/ reversal thing going on. Guess it was kind of weird but totally entertaining!

Best off-road rally ever!

I’m not gonna compare this book to a roller coaster because during a roller coaster your moment of adrenaline is quite short. So no, not a rollercoaster. This book is a full blown off-road rally raid!!

It’s fast paced, deliciously packed with, well, everything you want given the nature of our boys’ mission. They storm through the universe making “pit stops” along the way that aren’t only chaotic, they’re also quite deliciously intriguing as they unravel and dismantle a totalitarian, militarised regime and learn about each other (and themselves) along the way in every intimate way possible.
I read about things I KNEW I wanted to read in a book, but didn’t expect it to be this one (or maybe I subconsciously did?) lol And yeah, C. Rochelle fed me good! I was always eagerly awaiting for our boys to visit another planet because I was rubbing my hands together like a hungry little gremlin going “what’s going to happen now?” And it never disappointed.

My AUdhd self was so happy with the fast pacing of this book and how C. Rochelle always kept things incredibly interesting.

As for the narration, this was my first time listening to Gabriel Michael and I felt so ignorant because not only is he an extremely professional narrator and performer, he starred in several dramatisations of absolutely incredible books! He’s a very animated performer and you can feel (well, hear) how passionate and happy he is during his narration. He truly brought Micah to life, it was so good!

Nick J. Russo is a performer I’m very familiar with, because almost everything he narrates is an insta-buy for me. He’s very passionate during this performance (as he always is, tbh) and he portrayed Ziggy’s possessiveness of Micah brilliantly. I personally don’t think that such a raw emotion (that is very exclusive to fiction) is well portrayed by every narrator, but he’s got a knack for it!

If you like your books fast paced, exciting, full of raw emotions while two dorks that love each other to extents you cannot even imagine learn to love each other even more, then this book is for you! 100/10.

Space Daddy and Baby Girl to the Rescue

I wasn't sure about this book as I absolutely love Villainous Things and never want that to end or have two characters from that Universe get their story told. But......Micah and Ziggy are amazing!
Micah surprised me. He is so funny and super sex charged. I mean that boy. Whew. He is a walking kink factory and it's so much fun. For science is his motto. Unfortunately his parents don't pay any attention to him and his family has no idea how incredible he is. But a certain Alien Rambo sees him.
Ziggy is amazing as he is a David Bowie fan. I mean, hello, that is perfect. Ziggy is so broken. Such a loaner due to his parents abandoning him. Cruising through life doing work for a Stellarian government that doesn't appreciate him. Having to figure everything out by himself. He has a wall up around himself letting no one in but we all know he is just a softy.
Micah meets Ziggy and "stellar nova eruption". Ziggy is enamored by Micah and his ability as a superhero. One that no ones notices. But Ziggy notices. What could possibly go wrong. Micah decides to be a stowaway as Ziggy decides to go back to Stellaria because Micah was just about to ask Ziggy out on a date. Plus there is only one sleeping pod on the spaceship. Let the sexcapades begin.
What happens is Micah gets to stay, go on adventures with Ziggy, meet other aliens, get to see (and use) an alien brothel, save the Stellarians and fight to save his Space Daddy. Micah's enthusiasm to see the "real" Ziggy finally gets him to let someone else in to help. It also allows Ziggy to love.
The kink between these two is over-the-top and it works! Space Daddy and Baby Girl are so yummy.
The references to Davis Bowie and Mandalorian makes my heart so full.
C Rochelle gives us another "over-the-top" gay alien super hero story that is just what the world needs.

Narrator adds so much to the story

Really like the narrator for Micah. The way he changes from serious to sassy is seamless.

This is a re-read for me as having read the book, having it “told/performed” brings out the story so much better.

I also like being able to pronounce some of the more difficult words in the book that I may not have know.

Amazing

This audiobook is an amazing performance by the voice actors - the depth they bring to the story is incredible. C. Rochelle is an auto-buy author for me and I couldn't wait to get my hands (ears?) on this gloriousness. Ziggy and Micah are a match made in the stars and you will be blown away by the writing and audio performance of this audiobook!

YASSS

I live for this book!! This book is crazy, hilarious sweet and spicy!!! Listen to it now! Also, this book will make more sense if you read the books before this one. Have fun listening! 🤣😁

So much romantic smitten fun!

Good story, good narration, kinky steamy, hilariously snarky, fun. I'm a fan of Villinous Things and this spin off series is off to a great start with Earth Boys are Easy.

Excellent

This was excellent! The story was good, the spice was great and the narration was amazing!!!

Cute and hot!

Great storyline and spin off from the Villainous series. Very very “smexy” so get ready for lots of inappropriate banter and inner monologues from Micah 😂 Fingers crossed that there is a book 2 and then some!

So much fun

What do you get when you cross a grumpy, possibly villainous, insecure alien with a ray of sunshine? Ziggy and Micah! This book continues in the same world as the Villainous Things series by C. Rochelle. It can be read as a stand-alone, but you'll appreciate some of the mentions of other characters and backstory if you read those books first.
When you're first introduced to Ziggy in the Villainous Things series, he seems very cocky and self-assured. This book deconstructs everything you thought you knew about him, and reveals him to be a schmoopy idiot in love.
Micah is a really refreshing character. It's like he deliberately avoids tropes and *gasp* actually communicates! Dr. Micah in the house!
As C. Rochelle says, "you'll laugh, cry, and clench your thighs," and I definitely did all three.
Gabriel Michael as Micah was a brilliant narrator and brought so much fun to the role.
