Did you know that it’s the 10th anniversary of Ice Planet Barbarians? That’s right, the first book was published back in April 2015.

To celebrate, I’m partnering with author Ruby Dixon to host a voting bracket from September 10-24 to determine the “coolest” (aka the best) couple from the main Ice Planet Barbarians series. The couples will go head to head during two weeks of daily polls on Instagram!

24 couples will enter, but only one shall prevail!
