Blades of Arris, Book 2

By: Starla Night

Narrated by: Rose Dioro, Connor Crais, featuring - J.F. Harding

I will destroy all threats to the empire with unrelenting force. Even if that threat comes in the form of a weak, fragile lesser with night-black hair and beguiling eyes.

The blades. Elite forces of the empire, nightmare to all servant-world residents just trying to scrape by. Of course I have to flee when my medical ship comes under attack.

But my escape pod is captured by their ruthless leader.

His face is hidden in an assassin’s cowl. Metal sai weapons are fused to his wristbones. He can fly between spaceships like an owl and execute enemies through a hull.

Yet according to him, I’m the dangerous one.

His people’s lust metal has gotten in my blood. They’ll tear each other apart trying to get to me. And then? Because they can’t understand their feelings, they’ll tear me apart, too.

So he’s taking me to the Arsenal, a massive station teeming with his blades, where I’m one papercut away from unleashing hyperviolent zombie hordes.

Well, okay.

I’m lucky he’s the one who captured me. He senses the lust metal inside me, he understands the desires burning us both with unrelenting need, and he’s completely unaffected.

Or, well, mostly....

Contains unique alien shifters, fierce passion, and loyal warriors who find their fated mates in the stars. Each full-length book is a complete romance with an epic happily-ever-after. Claim your conqueror today!

Awesome

Another 5 star adventure from this amazing series. I can't wait for the next one. I have already pre-ordered the ebook I look forward to the audio book as well. Highly recommend. If you are a fan of this genre you will not be disappointed!

Quite Interesting

Second book continues storyline that is different than other storylines in the genre. The narrators bring characters to life as needed the depth of the and breadth of each character in the story. I look forward to listening to the next book in the series if or when it is released on Audible.

Interesting story

Let’s see this story was interesting plot and I liked the characters but most of time it was so confusing of what was going on that I just gave up and hoped for the best. It went in so many directions and didn’t explain well but characters made it interesting to listen too. You rooted for them to win. Not much fighting like I thought there would be with them supposedly to be elite warriors and some of content was just funny and had you shaking your head. I don’t know if worth a credit though. 🤔🤔 not much romance either

This series gets better and better

This is second book in the blade of Arris series and it expands from the previous suspenseful and dramatic book. The books flow flawlessly into one other . The author maturity and comfort is evident in this story compared to the first one. It is not just about the sci-fi romance, there is action and political intrigue that keeps you glued. Esme and Zai compliment each other and have great chemistry. There are moments Esme’s self esteem issues grated on my nerves but I think it is because she is so different from Katerina in the first book. Interestingly, the author has created race ambiguous characters and I love it. The tensions have still not been resolved in this book and I cannot wait for the next one .

Action packed, steamy, & primal!

Action packed, steamy, primal, and exciting with excellent narration! This story picked up where book 1 left off. I loved it and will continue with the series for sure!
