About this listen

EVERY MAN WANTS HER. MANY WANT TO KILL HER.

Good luck to them…

For the first time in her life, Sal has a place to belong, and it feels so right.

The iliri live in packs.
The Black Blades is hers.

But humans see them only as a military unit, and one with a little too much influence. To keep the "scrubbers" from gaining an advantage, humans will do anything - and none of it good. The only people they can trust are themselves.

But this time, they need help. Eight elite soldiers aren't enough to stop the bribe headed to Anglia. If that country gets two thousand kilos of steel, it'll change the tide of war, and the Conglomerate of Free Citizens will be caught in the middle.

The Black Blades have to trust someone, but their only options are humans. Hopefully, their "friends" aren't as dangerous as the enemy.

** A.H. Hadley is the fantasy persona of the international best selling author Auryn Hadley. Only the pen name has changed, the stories you'll enjoy have not changed.

Like all the books in this series, Rise of the Iliri is a complete epic science-fantasy novel, without a cliffhanger. Because of adult content, this may make it unsuitable for humans under 18.

These stories are a work of art. I'm not one to reread books but I've read this series three times and listened to it twice. Start at book one and watch everything build. If you like epic fantasy and new and surprising concepts, you won't be disappointed. This is my favourite of the whole series.
The narrator, Christina Cato, is amazingly talented and educated in the various dialects and accents to perfectly bring the characters to life. Definitely recommend.

The whole book was superb, my only negative is that it ended too soon. I can't wait for the next book!

The trials and tribulations of the black blades!
