When an experimental starship test goes horribly wrong, a test pilot from Earth is flung across the galaxy and crash lands on the planet of a powerful alien king.

Pilot Mallory West is having a really bad day. She’s crashed on an alien planet, her ship is in pieces, and her best friend Poppy, the scientist monitoring the experiment, is missing. Dazed and injured, she collapses into the arms of a big, silver-eyed warrior king. But when her rescuer cuffs her to a bed and accuses her of being a spy, Mal knows she has to escape her darkly tempting captor and find her friend.

Overlord Rhain Zhalto Sarkany is in a battle to protect his planet Zhalto and his people from his evil, power-hungry father. He’ll use every one of his deadly Zhalton abilities to win the fight against his father’s lethal warlord and army of vicious creatures. Rhain suspects the tough, intriguing woman he pulls from a starship wreck is a trap, but when Mal escapes, he is compelled to track her down.

Fighting their overwhelming attraction, Mal and Rhain join forces to hunt down the warlord and find Poppy. But as Mal’s body reacts to Zhalto’s environment, it awakens dormant powers, and Rhain is the only one who can help her. As the warlord launches a brutal attack, it will take all of Mal and Rhain’s combined powers to save their friends, the planet, and themselves.

Okay not good at this so I will just say I couldn’t put it down, it is a wonderful story with twists and turns that keep you turning the page.

If you haven’t read Anna Hackett’s books, you will want to after this, she is an awesome writer who pulls you into the first book of a series (she has several series including a 20 books series Hell Squad) and makes you want to read the entire series.

Well done again Anna for the start to a new series that is entwined with another of her series

(Paint) romance by numbers

Reviewed in Australia on 9 February 2022

Verified Purchase

I don’t really know what to say here. I didn’t enjoy this book. It was a cute story but it wasn’t my taste. It felt very much romance by numbers.

Mal and Rhain were almost immediately emotionally vulnerable with each other in an unrealistic way for two ppl. It felt forced and Insta-love.

This book had moments of fun but I spent more time cringing over the tropes and such.

I knew what it was going in but I expected a little more realism in the connection, although I guess that’s hard to do in short book like this.

Overlord is overloaded with action heroes

Reviewed in Australia on 30 December 2021

Verified Purchase

So King Zavir came into power, alied with the Zhylaw and took a bride from Zhalto to take benefit of the people's ability to manipulate the charged particles in the magnetic field and use the powerful energy. That was the Z introduction to the new world which was led by superhunk ruler Rhain.

Rhain has it in for his cruel father who not only arranged the assassination of Rhain's mother but has sent that guy, Krastin, to conquer Zhalto. So .... this is a high action story with a rule breaking, sword weilding human pilot out to rescue her scientist friend after they crash. She refuses to cooperate, makes demands, jumps into situations swinging a sword with more power than the locals, crashes regularly, has more lives than a cat and has the hots for the hero. I found the story hard to swallow. Skim read from 40% with no surprises. Still, well written if you like 'strong female leads'.

Excellent Beginning to this series

Mallory West is a kickass heroine… she crash lands on a planet on the other side of the known galaxy after a malfunction occurred with the new hyperdrive…she meets Rhaine who is in a nasty war with his father…and ends up tied up and interrogated!
It’s a great adventure from then on….really good!

I liked the world building, the characters were pretty good and the romance was decent too. A lot happened in a short time, it made it a pretty easy read because something was always going on. It wasn’t particularly emotionally wrenching or memorable but it was a good read and I’ll definitely try the next book in the series.

I am sitting on the fence with this one. Although I did enjoy the read, it didn’t draw me in as much as I thought it might. I’m not sure what it was, but I look forward to reading Poppy’s story next. And with the overlap of characters from the Gladiator series, I will be catching up on them too.

Romance and action

Mal travels through a wormhole and crashes her spaceship on a planet on the other side of the galaxy. Rhain the planets Overlord finds her and takes her captive. She escapes but proves herself with her willingness to fight a common enemy. Anna Hackett is excellent at portraying a kickass heroine and never disappoints.

Some cool ideas; lots of repetition

Reviewed in Australia on 3 May 2022

Verified Purchase

I immediately loved the world that Hackett created but felt cold at the romance. A lot of the action was repetitive and I had to skim through a lot because some of those scenes didn't seem to advance the plot much. Same for the ✨aCtIoN✨ scenes. I can't put my finger on it, but it just didn't gel and felt unnatural.

What a Fabulous start to this new series - a spin off from the Galactic warriors seriesI

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 February 2022

Well I can heartily state that Anna Hackett never disappoints. In her new series we meet Mallory, Mal for short, leading a two- woman space mission. In essence testing out a new space ship which for some reason is thrown off its trajectory, through some wormhole a d Then crash lan!d's on an unknown planet. To make matters worse part of the ship has broken off taking Mal's friend and scientist Dr Poppy Ellison with it. Mal is in an inhospitable environment. It just gets worst when she is confronted by these awful hexids. Our protagonist, Rhain who, though very impressed with her fighting skills, thinks she is a spy sent by his evil father!! How Mal and Rhain 's relationship develops and the story unfolds I will leave to you to reaf... But I was up until 3:30 in the morning!! Thrilling read with a new kind of enemy and Mal is caught right in the middle of it!! A fabulous start to this series!! Highly recommend!!

Personally? A disappointment.

I've been a fan of Anna Hackett for a long time, but this book just reconfirms something I've noticed about the last she's released. Her writing style has really started to decrease. It's not the characters, it's the sentence structure and the fleshing out of the plot. Sometimes it's like I'm reading the cliffnotes version of the book and I find myself skimming through pages until I skid to a halt stopped by the eighteenth 'Suddenly' in the chapter. (I have a serious phobia of that word now!)
Unpopular opinion, but her last few books have seemed like money grabs to me, aimed at an audience that has only recently discovered her writing and only care about the sex scenes. I have legitimately tried to read this book about six times and each time I can barely get half way through, and I'm so d@mn disappointed about that because I seriously love her as an author. When I first discovered her Hell Squad series I brought every one and had a massive binge read.
I won't be buying any more of her books, I'll just stick to the ones I already have.
One star.

Loved it!

A spinoff from her galactic gladiators series but you certainly don't need to read it first to enjoy this one (but it's a great series!). Strong kick ass heroine, loveable alpha hero who's a marshmallow underneath it all. Plenty of action and steamy scenes. Love how all the brothers have a different set of powers on their own planets, really looking forward to book 2!

New series, more magic

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 December 2021

New series and its another example of perfection. Overlord is the start of Anna's New series and what a start. Mal is a strong, independent woman who cannot catch a break from the universe and Rahin is the overlordness who needs to remember he's a man as well as the leader of his planet. Loved the story, loved all the new characters and the hints of more as well as the new creatures Anna has created. Bring on book 2....and 3 and 4....etc

Amazing book!

Thoroughly enjoyed the book! Brilliant writing! Thank you Anna!
Absolutely great storyline! I love the characters! Their strengths, loyalty, love. All the action!
Totally one of my favourite books.
The story flowed wonderfully, and didn't have that long-winded nonsense of them questioning each others feelings for more than half of the book.
Will definitely read the next book and more books written by Anna
