Publisher's summary

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.

Love this series!

I love the characters and world building, everything really. These are my favorite books to re-read, and I can’t wait for the next audiobook to come out.

Amazing!

I've read the series many times before it was out on audiobook and I think Christina Cato did such an amazing job narrating! Sal and the Black Blades are some of my favorite characters. The plot is awesome and the charcter and story building is on point for me. Thank you!

Love this series

Listening to this story seems to go so quickly! Before I knew it, book 2 was at its end. I could easily pick up where the audiobook left off and read book 3 on my kindle, but then I wouldn’t be able to do any multitasking. Really looking forward to the remaining books to make it to audio.

My favorite series EVER!

I have read more books in my life that I could never hope to count them. Hadley and the Illiri sit at the very top of my favorites list. I’ve read them all and I was over the moon THRILLED when I found it was being brought to life on audible. I’m checking back at least once a week waiting in the next in the series!

Love the Storyline

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!

This story is EPIC

I'm so glad that the ROTI series is finally coming out on Audible. I've read the complete series several times. Now I get to listen to the books as I cook and clean around the house.

This book 2 (Instinctual) was a lot easier to listen to once I got past the different accents which seem a bit more distracting in book 1.

Overall, excellent narration

Loyalty to do what is right

The narration was great to listen to. I love this story line and characters. The loyalty in the black blades go do what is good and right for all. The spotlight shown on those who are evil and want only harm instead of love and acceptance for those that are different.
