Publisher's summary
First a slave, then a conscript, she’s always been at the mercy of monsters. When she’s offered a chance to unsheathe her claws, will death spill out?
Sal Luxx is desperate to prove her kind are more than beasts. Born a second-class citizen in a world ruled by humans, the hardheaded pure-bred iliri has had subservience beaten into her veins. But her waning hope for freedom surges when she is given a pass to the trials for an elite military unit… and unleashes her inner predator.
After Sal’s interaction with her new brothers-in-arms triggers strange mental powers, the knowledge her abusers have kept from her drives a growing rage. Yet even as she struggles to smother her rising berserker instincts, she’s undermined by the irresistible urge to claim a mate.
Will Sal’s untamable nature spawn a rebellion or a massacre?
** 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.
BloodLust is the darkly intense first book in the Rise of the Iliri epic science fantasy series. If you like fierce female leads, shocking secrets, and scenes of primal passion, then you’ll love this sharp-edged adventure.
Like all the books in the Rise of the Iliri series, this is a complete epic science-fantasy novel, without a cliffhanger. Due to the subject matter of this series, please check the Sensitivity Notice and the Author's Note page at the beginning of the book for specifics.

Story
I always imagined Death's final kiss would be cold. It wasn't. Four years later, I can still remember the exact shade of his skin: a blue so pale it looked like moonlight. I dream of his touch. Mostly, I paint the man under the heavy cowl, including those perfect lips which ruined mine for anyone else. I'm obsessed with him.

I make a living out of screwing over the jerks who capture and torment supernatural beasties. But when I free a bunch of particularly powerful monsters from their cages, I'm not counting on them following me home like lost puppies - stunningly hot lost puppies, but still. These manly monsters are determined to repay me for my help, and they won't get out of my apartment, until they're satisfied we're even. There's something to be said for allies so devoted they'll tear off heads and shred souls on your behalf. I'm all for joining forces.

Story
Leaving my husband was hard. Trying to face the world alone with my teenage daughter is the sort of thing nightmares are made of, but I caught a break. My best friend just hired me for a great job, with perks like a rent-free house right beside not just one handsome man, but five! Each one is hotter than the last, and all of them seem interested in me. But everyone around us has these strange golden eyes...and there are the questions no one will answer. And who cares if there's a lot of wildlife running around at night? I do, especially when a wolf keeps sneaking into my backyard.

Story
Six years ago, I awoke in a cage with no knowledge of who I was or where I’d come from. Six years ago, I was spared the flesh markets and instead thrown in with a group of savages, where I learned it was fight or die. Now, eight Orders of Assassins are converging on the only home I’ve ever known. All in hopes of purchasing new blade slaves for their ranks. I’m for sale, yet all I want is a life far from death and ownership. Then I meet them, the Order of Scorpions. Their allure is a threat to the freedom I crave, but I won’t fall victim to their sting, no matter how tempting it might be.

My whole life has been characterized by fighting; fighting my family and fighting for my life. Trust me—the first one is completely voluntary, and a lot of fun. The second? Not so much. To say my family dynamic is weird is the understatement of the century. I held my first sword when I was only five years old, and I learned how to dispose of a body before I turned ten. I may have a penchant for pink and sparkles…but that doesn’t mean I don’t know how to kick major ass as well.

All I have to do is survive. I didn't count on my three 6'5 roommates. Covered in tattoos, jeweled, and horned, these are like no men I've ever dealt with before. They don't think I belong. They don't think I'm strong enough for war. They don't think I can fight. I'm about to prove them wrong. The only problem, can I survive them discovering the secrets of my past?

Emmeline believes her daughter, Elora, is the Beloved—the conduit with goddess-granted divine abilities prophesied to bring peace to the Three Kingdoms. Because the last person thought to be the Beloved was brutally murdered by the enemy kingdom of Folterra, Emmeline has dedicated the last sixteen years to hiding her daughter and keeping her safe.

Running to Summerpoint to avoid my failed love life may have seemed drastic, but I'd just inherited a house from a distant relative. The timing was perfect, almost like magic. But the cottage is in need of repairs, the place is in the middle of a forest, and I'm not used to small towns. Then I meet my new contractors. Sexy doesn't begin to describe them. The flirting flows easily, and while they're a well-established couple, it seems they may have room for more. Even better, these guys are quickly getting to be a lot more than just friends.

Fifty years ago, supernaturals walked amongst humans, hidden in plain sight. Overnight, the world changed. The veil shattered, revealing their true nature, and humans were forced into sectors so those with preternatural blood could flourish out in the open. Every human's twenty-first birthday is marked by a rite of passage. The Awakening, as the supers call it. It's simple. We dip our toes into a God-made lagoon, then go home.

I can finally multi task while enjoying one of my
when I heard this was being made into audio I was excited yet a tad terrified. there is just so much here,characters,and i completely forgot about the "head voice". however,Christina did an amazing job bringing to life each and every character with a variety of voice, each distinct and fitting for the character.
as for the story,well this is just the beginning of an amazing world that auryn crafted. audio just allows me to be enthralled by the illiri and humans of Ogun while multitasking! I really can't wait for the rest of the books to be made into audio.
received an advanced reviewer copy, but review is my own.

Love Her Storytelling
Auryn is a master of storytelling! I can immerse myself in anything she writes because her attention to detail is just that good. Ms Cato does an admirable job pushing thru so many dialect and vocal changes. I do wish these had been made dual narration but that's a personal preference, and not a knock on Ms Cato. Fabulous audiobook series!

Love the book. The narrator could be better
I always really enjoy A. Hadley's books and the Rise of the Illiri series are my absolute favorite. I've read it several times. I had to admit that I was hesitant at first with Cato's narration. I wasn't a big fan of the accent she gave the male "human" characters. I wish they would have made it sound more natural. At first, listen, it grated a bit on my ears, but after a while, it wasn't as bad.
For those not familiar with this series before warned that it is a true epic with, I think 11 books in all. This first book barely dips your toe into the creative genius of Hadley. So if you're like me and like to wait until the entire series is completed and before you start listening, you might consider waiting or reading the books first.

Loved it
I was waiting for a couple of years for the audible book and it was worth it. I had to get used to the speaker and her intonation for different persons but it was very good. I read the books a couple of times so in my head some word had another pronunciation but damn i really love the audible i cannot wait for book 2. If you are not sire about buying it. Don't hesitate, Auryn hadley writes wonderful books and it was a really good to listen to. I started and i only stopped listening because i had to work. This book is that amazing.

Great series
One of my favorite series that no matter how many times I’ve read always holds my attention. However, I found it extremely difficult (and frustrating) to listen to. I think the character portrayals missed the mark being so accent heavy (and the accent used) in the males, with Cyno’s being the worst by sounding so timid and not simply speaking a second language.
Will probably stick with the kindle version for the rest of the series.

Bloodlust.
Auryn Hadley writes great stories. They are different…a bit sexual…and always a learning experience. Christina Cato did well. Her best performance thus far in my opinion. The human accent was a bit imperfect Indian accent which is kind of cute.
