About this listen

In the aftermath of a deadly alien invasion, a band of survivors fights on.

In a world gone to hell, Elle Milton - once the darling of the Sydney social scene - has carved a role for herself as the communications officer for the toughest commando team fighting for humanity's survival - Hell Squad. It's her chance to make a difference and make up for horrible past mistakes, despite the fact that its battle-hardened commander never wanted her on his team.

When Hell Squad is tasked with destroying a strategic alien facility, Elle knows they need her skills in the field. But first she must go head to head with Marcus Steele and convince him she won't be a liability.

Marcus Steele is a warrior through and through. He fights to protect the innocent and give the human race a chance to survive. And that includes the beautiful, gutsy Elle, who twists him up inside with a single look. The last thing he wants is to take her into a war zone, but soon they are thrown together, battling both the alien invaders and their overwhelming attraction. And Marcus will learn just how much he'll sacrifice to keep her safe.

Great narration on a very good book!

I’ve read the HellSquad series 4? 5? Times now and decided to listen this time thru. I liked both narrators - good pacing, sounded s lot like the characters in my head, and really brought the story to life. Give it a try!

Good easy read

Nice world building, interesting characters and believable romance.
I liked the book for what it was, there were lots of cliches and the story was fairly formulaic, but it was well written and enjoyable. The author captures the characters personalities well and stays really consistent which is nice for this type of book. Sometimes sci-fi has a tendency to add superhero character traits just to ‘solve’ sticky situations, because they don’t have to worry about reality, instead Anna Hackett uses good writing.

Excellent start to the series

This is wonderful book full of action and romance. The characters are survivors after an alien lizard race, the Gizzida, invaded the earth. Marcus was part of the Earth's last defense, a group called Hell Squad. Elle, party girl in her prior life, was now working with Marcus as part of his team and even as they fall in love, they have to deal with the horror associated with alien occupation. This is an exciting story and the book is free on amazon. I've read this book a few times and now that it is on AE, I got to listen to it too. Both narrators were great- good pacing and good playing of multiple characters. I enjoyed this book and look forward to listening to the others (I've read all the books in the series and I have to say, this is a fantastic, heart pounding series!!)

Brilliant narration for Anna Hackett's 1st Audible

Congratulations Anna Hackett for such a brilliant first Audiobook for your action-packed series Hell Squad.

Marcus has always been my favourite in your alien-invasion series and to hear both Elle and Marcus--spoiling your fans with two narrators for your alternating POV style of storytelling--is an amazing treat. All that heart-pumping, adrenalin-filled tension on paper (or ebook) just got enhanced with Audible.

Thankyou Samantha Cook and Jeffrey Kafer for your brilliant narration, giving life to fans' favourites Elle and Marcus

Quick Low Angst Listen

The narrators did a good job. This was a quick entertaining low angst listen. The world building was easy to follow and the characters main and secondary were enjoyable. I enjoyed the storyline and look forward to listening to more in the series.

Great story

BOOK REVIEW.......
Ok first I have to admit that I wasn't really sure I would like this series. While I love love love sci-fi movies and shows I generally have trouble with getting into sci-fi books.

That being said. I love this series! The characters are so full of life and strength. The dialogue is witty and smart. I loved how flawed and messed up everyone is, yet still strong and touch enough to fight back yet. It makes for great obstacles for the characters to have to over come along with the aliens they have to fight.

Now I would be lying if I didn't say that the aliens are a little bit hokey. They are a mixture of different dinosaur/reptilian and human shaped. I wish there was a drawing of them in the books. It would help with picturing them. However they are rather cool sounding and impressively evil wicked buggers.

The characters of Marcus and Elle were well rounded and nicely written.

I would recommend this book and series to anyone looking for a good alien story to read.

Reading order......
- Marcus
- Cruz
- Gabe
- Reed
- Roth
- Noah
- Shaw
- Holmes
- Niko
- Finn

NARRATOR REVIEW.......
