About this listen

Fighting for love, honor, and freedom on the galaxy's lawless outer rim.....

Space marine Blaine Strong enjoyed being a composed, controlled member of space station security...until he was abducted by alien slavers. Forced into underground fight rings and pumped full of drugs, he's now seething with anger and out for revenge.

Rescued by gladiators and fellow humans on the desert world of Carthago, Blaine is fighting to be the man he once was. But when the House of Galen is attacked, he must focus on joining the gladiators to fight back. That means teaming up with a tough, competitive female gladiator who not only challenges him at every turn, awakens a fierce desire he's never felt before, but a woman who can sense the churning emotions inside him.

Gladiator Saff Essikani is the best net fighter in the Kor Magna Arena. Raised from young to fight, she bows to no man and uses her empathic abilities to win at whatever cost. With her House targeted and people under their care threatened, she'll stop at nothing to find those responsible. But then she finds herself face to face with a big, tortured man from Earth who affects her like no man before. As Saff and Blaine head into the desert to uncover a conspiracy, their incendiary desire flares hotter than the desert suns. But as Blaine's angry emotions rage out of control, Saff knows that unless he learns to embrace the man he is now, he has no chance of survival.

I really like this series but I had a harder time getting as invested in this story as some of the others. A lot was the same, desert, fighting, searching, security breaches...but overall a OK continuance of the series. The narrator is excellent and ha does the voice switching effortlessly!

A nice romp

Blain is a formerly controlled security officer who has been recently rescued from an abduction that took him across the galaxy and made him fight for his life for months. Due to his captors, he is struggling to overcome the effects of the forced drugs and loss of lives in the fight arena.

Saff is a bad@$$ gladiator for the house of Galen and she isn't sure why Blain intrigues her so, but her species' extra sensory abilities have given her a little insight into his chaotic feelings and can't seem to brush thoughts of him aside as easily as others.

Thoroughly enjoyed this read and love how each standalone story moves the entire world events forward and connects to past and future characters and situations.

I absolutely love the entire Galactic Gladiators series. I have listened to over a hundred books and several book series and I will say most are pretty good but this series is my favorite by far!

I applaud you Anna Hackett. You have created a world like no other. Your words are an amazing visual art. I normally like reading a book, but I have to say the audiobook with Vivienne as narrator is so much better. Love this book with the H/ H as the main characters, it had action, drama, romance-just the right amount of steam-and all the good feels. Can't get enough of this series. Two more audio books to go.

What an amazing series

Blaine and Saff’s relationship was a slow burn that developed into a raging fire!! Whoo! Blaine, a Space Marine, is captured and forced to fight for his life in a deadly underground fighting ring! Saff, a Gladiator net fighter, has fought all of her life and thrives on challenge and competition! Their initial encounter is strained but instant attraction allows them to explore a deeper connection which leads to a to a romantic relationship!! They inspire and support one another through any obstacles in their path! Overall this is a good story with all the feels!! Vivienne Leheny is fantabulous as a narrator and brings the story to life!

Slow burn 🔥

Hoped for more variation in this book but disappointed that the characters and use of language is becoming boring and repetitive in book 5..

Storyline is getting repetitive
