Over the next few weeks, IPB books started popping up on Amazon’s Sci-Fi and Romance bestseller lists, occasionally even taking the top spots. Whether it was her praise of author Ruby Dixon’s “sweet” and “weirdly complex” storytelling, the promise of “males who are simps” and treat their women right, or the more, uh, anatomical aspects (Ridges!

If there’s one reader to blame for the current “Ice Planet Barbarians” moment, it’s Emma Carter.
