Alien Outlaws #0.5-3
Alien Outlaws: The Complete Series
Outlaws, schemes, and love... it's all there in the Alien Outlaws series...
Andie Munster is sick of life on Ixilta, the planet she got dumped on after being abducted from Earth six years ago. And when the mysterious and dangerous Xandr shows up looking for a way off the planet, she's half-prisoner, half-co-conspirator in a wild rush to escape.
Follow Andie, Xandr, and the rest of the crew through heists, hijinks, and love in the Alien Outlaws series by Kate Rudolph. Included in this collection are Escape from Ixilta, Rogue Alien's Woman, Rogue Alien's Secret, and Rogue Alien's Legacy.
Escape from Ixilta
When a dashing purple alien named Xandr smashes Andie's carefully constructed existence to pieces, she'll need to make a choice: remain trapped on a planet where freedom is little more than an illusion, or reach for something greater and risk everything.
Rogue Alien's Woman
When a job comes up that's too lucrative to miss, Xandr and his crew will risk everything to pull it off. But is Xandr willing to risk the one woman who makes him want more than a life of petty crime?
Rogue Alien's Secret
Andie and Xandr's relationship is blooming between heists, explosions, and evading the dogged Duke of Mebion. But when a job goes wrong the whole crew is at risk and Xandr is hiding something that could doom them all.
Rogue Alien's Legacy
Xandr's past has come back to haunt his crew, and if they don't find a way to work together, they'll all end up rotting in an Oscavian prison... or worse.

This is a great boxed set, my reviews for each are below.
This is a great start to a new alien series. The story is fast paced with great characters and an entertaining story. I look forward to reading more in the series.
This is the second book in the series and for better enjoyment I do recommend reading them in order. Andie and Xandr are back on the ship, however Xandr is no longer captain and his past is interfering with his relationship with Andie. Will they find a way to make it work? Fast-paced read with plenty of drama and twists and turns. Great characters and steamy chemistry. A good sci-fi read.
This is the third book in the series and a I do recommend reading them in order. Andi and Xandr are hot and steamy behind closed doors but are doing their best to act normal in front of the crew. But when the entire crew is in danger, will Xandr reveal what he has been hiding and if he does? If the truth is revealed, will he lose the love he just found? Fast-paced with plenty drama and steam. Can’t wait for more!
This is the 4th book in the series (including the prequel) and I do recommend reading them in order. This read starts where the last book left off, Andi and Xandr have been captured and secrets are revealed. Will his crew remain loyal to him and will Andi forgive him? This is a fast-paced sci-fi read with loads of drama and suspense. I really loved the characters and the story takes you on a pirate adventure in space. A fun and entertaining read!

Wonderful ending to a long series
While I may have only given the first two books 3stars it was only due to the feeling of being led hanging in the book ending I don’t usually like a series like that wheee you only get a hfn ending instead of the hea that you crave but with the entire series in this book I finally got that HEA ending with the main characters and I hope they show up in other books in the Detyan series and others that are connected to get the happy ending for the other supporting characters in the series!
Glad I kept on reading instead of letting the series go at the end of the first book!

This book had more of a love story than what I was expecting. That being said, I did like it. There's 4 books in one and they're all fast reads. I was expecting a little more risqué material and there were a couple bits in there that was exactly what I was looking for.
This is the first time reading a Kate Rudolph book/series and I can say that I'll definitely pick up another one.

#1 - Andie was abducted from Earth over 6 years ago. She has managed to eke out a living on her new "home" planet. But she is still essentially prisoner, after all no one can leave and if you cause trouble- well you disappear. But her boring, though somewhat safe, existence is dented when a huge, purple alien pops into her workplace. He literally comes from nowhere! Xander is an Oscavian (yes I know they are usually the bad guys but give him a break - he's actually a nice guy!) Think purple Han Solo! Andie gets him off the planet but has she traded one form of slavery for another? Xander is awesome - I need one of him please! He is a hoot, even though he is playing fast and loose with Andi's life!
#2 - Andie is still on probation it seems with most of the crew! She has still to find a niche, a job that can cement her worth to the crew and give her a permanent place on the ship. But does she really want to be part of this crew? They seem to bridge the grey between legal and illegal and Andie has no idea if she can live as a space pirate! Xandr has returned to his crew and his ship but how can he go back to being 2nd in command? His former 1st mate took over when he was imprisoned and he can't just kick her out of the chair now he's back...or can he? The mottliest crew is back! They make space fun, snarky and just a little bit naughty! With Andie and Xandr circling each other, they end up sharing a cabin but hearing their neighbours at it at all times of the day and night is playing havoc with Andie's libido. We also get to see a bit more of Xandr's past and just what is his connection to a certain Oscavian noble??!?!?!
#3 - Andi and Xandr are still settling into their...quasi relationship. Behind closed doors, they are all over each other but in front of the other drew they are trying to act with decorum. Xandr is letting Andi take part in more heists and trying not to give her special treatment. But feelings are climbing on both sides and he's not sure how much longer they can go on as they are. The crew have another few tight scrapes with the Oscavian Empire and Mebion is still on their tale. But the real crux of the story is whether Xandr will come clean to Andi over his prior run-in with His Grace or will she find out in other ways? Be warned there is a cliffie! I hate them!
#4 - Xandr and the crew of theSeven were finally caught by the Duke of Mebion in the last book. This book picks up where the 2nd book ended. Xandr is separated from his crew. He is being kept in his old room and Ceetr is doing his best to get a local Prince to come to the festivities he is holding so that charges can be levied against Xandr and the crew. But he has a potential ally in his brother's disaffected wife. All he has to do is kill his brother and ensure his niece takes his place! Andi and the rest of the crew are also essentially being imprisoned in luxury. But that doesn't stop Ceetr using the newly discovered relationship between Xandr and Andi to his own benefit. But typical coward that he is he gets others to do the dirty work. But this ingenious crew put together a plan to save their captain and put an end to Ceetr's involvement in the slavery of humans and other races. A great end to the trilogy. Xandr is really more the pirate captain he has come to play than the rich, disaffected Lord he had been required to be. He and Ceetr could not be further apart when it comes to morals. Zeesa is a bit of a slippery fish and she is not above trying to tempt Xandr to take up her other offers of "assistance" but our fearless captain has his head screwed on right!

Finally! The WHOLE story!
I'm a major Kate Rudolph fan. From her underdog Detyens, to her far-flung Oscavian empire with its uppity and entitled nobility, to the strategically important backwater planet, Earth, she creates a universe of steamy romance, edge-of-your-seat derring-do, and nail-biting suspense. She can also create some truly beautiful and unexpectedly deep characters - human and alien alike. This complete compilation of her Alien Outlaws series gives stunning examples of both. (If you are like me, you cry 'foul' when confronted unexpectedly with a serial and its cliffhanger and to-be-continued endings. by publishing the serial as one book, all such failings disappear.) Here, in five installments, is the tale of Andi the enslaved human, Xandr the no-less-enslaved Oscavian freelance thief, and two lost souls who are imprisoned as much by their own pasts as by their present circumstances. The fast-and-furious action of clandestine missions and deadly games of cat-and-mouse is nicely balanced with the inner journeys of Xandr and Andi to self-knowledge, and freedom. HEA - a new place for themselves in the universe - is hard-won, but their love and their new reality bring the story to a stunning but unexpected conclusion. I absolutely recommend this omnibus edition as one of Kate Rudolph's best works. This is a voluntary ARC review.

October 21, 2019This romance was super fun. The outlaw heists and hijinks were fun, and our hero being a secret noble outlaw with a heart of gold was a super fun space opera element to this romance novel. This novel reminded me a little bit of the TV show Firefly in tone, though the plot and world building was very different. This omnibus of the complete novel is definitely worth a read, though I would not read this novel in the original serial format it was first released in. I intensely dislike the serial format. I am super glad the author released this novel in a complete volume so I was able to enjoy it. The heroine was super likable and her courage in comminicating clearly to the hero where she was at emotionally was a pleasure to read. The hero respected all the heroine's boundaries, which was also a pleasure to read in a romance novel. This novel struck a good balance between internal and external conflict, in my opinion. I also enjoyed getting more information on the internal workings of the Oscavian Empire which we haven't gotten much of in this author's two series about the Detyen aliens and their human fated mates. An all-around excellent read, in my opinion.

I was totally pro-Detyen and against the Oscavian’s before this series. Xandr has changed my mind quite a bit. I really liked Andi, you can’t help it! She is whip smart and is real enough to have some self-doubts. I loved how this series played out from the start to the end. Plenty of swashbuckling, plotting, action, and smarts. The action and worlds portrayed were wonderful. The characters were a hoot. It made for a fun space pirating story.
Escape from Ixilta (Rogue Alien Escape)- Andi is a super smart woman that knows how to survive and play by the rules. Then in the next second, she’s chancing everything for this stranger. Xandr is swashbuckling and blows her away.
Rogue Alien’s Woman- I enjoyed that Andi got a chance to join up with this swashbuckling crew. Xandr is a bit of a mess not knowing how to handle situations a bit better.
Rogue Alien’s Secret- The action has just been building! Between Andi learning how to fit in with the crew and her relationship with Xandr. And now the Duke and his surprises. It’s all out a run for time and safety.
Rogue Alien’s Legacy- Legacy wrapped all the action up wonderfully. From the arch of the Duke’s upturned nose to Andi’s sly skills, it is an entertaining read.

Alien Outlaws: The Complete Series is just that, all four books. Escape From Ixilta, Rough Alien's Woman, Rogue Alien's Secret, and Rogue Alien's Legacy. You get the whole story and miss nothing, nor do you have to wait to finish Andie and Xandr's tale.
The story follows Andie, a human woman stolen from earth and enslaved for six years, and Xandr, a mysterious Oscavian (a race of humanoid purple skinned aliens who mostly rule the galaxy) outlaw on their journey through a rough ride to their happily ever after. They manage to escape a prison planet together, get up to good old space pirate hi jinks, enjoy some crew drama, learn to navigate a relationship neither one expected, and even wind up in the middle of some political shenanigans. Talk about fun right?
If you like your aliens purple, your political intrigue deadly and close to home, your romance hot, and a lot of action, this series is definitely for you. And this will get you the whole set!

A sci-fi romance with action and adventure. The story really builds as you get to know all the characters. Xandr is a complicated male and captain of the outlaw spaceship. Andie is a human female that was kidnapped from earth six years ago. But her life changed when one handsome escape prisoner asked for her help. From there her life as an outlaw brought her plenty of adventure but nothing comes easy. The romance in this series builds as well as the two main characters change and get to know each other. I loved all the action and never knowing what this group of outlaws would do next.
October 20, 2019
This is just an awesome set of books and a must read! I love Alien romance stories and this set of books fit the bill. The plot, word building and characters pull you in from the beginning and I couldn't stop reading. I loved Xabdr and Andi. There's plenty of action and suspense, passion, hot aliens and romance a definite must read for any fan and I can't wait to read more!!!

I am so glad I was able to read this collection!
The writing draws you in and keeps you involved throughout the whole of each story. I found myself in love with not only the characters, but also the worlds that were created.
Great character development with enough of the everyday grind to really be able to sink into each and every book.

This is the complete series in just one book. Get ready to binge read. The first book is short and basically introduces the characters and the plot. But don’t worry, there’s a lot of action going on through this series, and it starts right from the first book. For those looking for aliens, romance and action, this is the book for you. Each book gets better.
October 16, 2019
This was a really great box set and a must-read for anyone who enjoys a good Alien read. You get the entire series in one place and the author did a great job of sucking me right in the first book is a little shorter than the rest and introduces us to the plot and characters. These are good well-written books full of action and they held my interest all the way through.
