Publisher's summary

Arkan Kythelian is the last man standing. He's well aware of that fact. The rest of his First Division brothers have succumbed to the Mating Fever, falling for those gentle, alluring creatures—humans.

He should probably be more bothered by it, but he's a little preoccupied right now. See, he's just detected the presence of a group of terrified humans onboard a Kordolian slave-trader ship. He has to go after them. It's a matter of principle.

Earth is theirs now, and he and his battle-brothers have sworn to protect the vulnerable beings that inhabit it. Their enemies—Kordolians that yearn for the resurgence of the Old Empire—keep trying to steal human females for their infernal breeding programs. Not on his watch.

Amidst the darkness and chaos, a soft female voice invades his consciousness. Given the circumstances, she's impressively calm. There's something in her voice. Something he can't quite put his finger on. It calls to him.

Nothing is going to stand between him and the ones he has sworn to protect. His enemies won't know what hit them.

And sooner or later, he will take what is his.

Contains mature themes.

one of the best male leads

The series hit a bit of a slump on the last 2 books but the male lead was super unique in this one. He had a personality and approach all his own. And, while the narrator is not my favorite, he was better in this book than in the last.

The narrator I’m sure he’s a nice guy is very deadpanned 

Again, I did not like the narrator on the last two books it feels like my grandpa is reading this to me

Series End is Close

Seems like this series maybe coming to an end. I’m not sure but this couple was kind of cute and kind of annoying. I still love the world building and all of the action but was that a different narrator?

story line was good

Too much repetitive internal monologue,which made the book boring. I wanted it to keep moving, or get on with the story. Liked the characters, interesting plot twist at the end. So maybe the story continues?

By George, we got it!

Too much time was placed on emphasizing Kordolians being Badass and Humans being so fragile and helpless that it made me want to wretch and roll my eyes; especially since previous books already covered this. The storyline was interesting and kept me listening. Narrator did a good job with male voices; would benefit from adding a female narrator.

Narrator

I found it difficult to listen to this book, but the story was so intriguing I powered through skipping many chapters to get to the end.
