Publisher's Summary
One of the genre's favorite pairs returns in a classic fantasy short for both Riyria veterans and first-time readers.
Several years have passed since the war-weary mercenary Hadrian and cynical ex-assassin Royce joined forces to start their thieves-for-hire organization better known as Riyria. Things have gone well enough for the team as they do "jobs" for various nobles throughout Elan. Usually that means stealing something, but when a young heiress asks them to steal her…well, that's a first for the pair. All is not as it seems, but Royce is determined to get the bottom of what's actually going on. After all, he has his professional integrity at stake.
Originally released in the Blackguards anthology published by Ragnarok Publications, this is a standalone short story of 10,800 words. No prior knowledge of The Riyria Revelations or The Riyria Chronicles is required to enjoy it to its fullest, making this a perfect introduction for new readers or a chance for existing fans to spend a little more time with old friends.

A twist you didn't expect.
Funny in the begging & then the first unexpected twist.. It starts to get you wondering in suspense & that's where the second & biggest surprise hits & that makes you at least crack a smile if you don't end up laughing..
~ Review on this site ~
I'm just not sure what book comes next.. I didn't realize the jester was before this until I heard them say about their last job.. Audible needs to show the books in order when they are connected instead of making your customers try and figure it out on my own like I did.. I'm New to all this.. I normally just use my text to speech..

Another Awesome Riyria Story!
I love ALL the Riyria stories and Royce and Hadrian are my all time two favorite "fantasy" characters. I love the dry humor and situations they find themselves in. Even though this was a short story, it had a great plot and interesting characters.
I was so excited to learn there will be another Riyria Chronicles story coming out later this year! Woo-Hoo!
Michael Sullivan, thank you so much for releasing this book for free; it was awesome.

Enjoyed this enough to add the series to my wishlist.
An enjoyable short story that I found intriguing from the very beginning. Recommended of you're after something to complete in one go, or as an introduction to the wider Riyria series. it's free too, so even better!
No prior knowledge of the characters or series is needed as this is standalone.

Entertaining short story
Entertaining short story from the enjoyable Riyria Chronicles. Not as good as the novels (I am a big fan of the novels), but well-worth a listen. Only downside (and this is totally subjective, and possibly over 'picky'), is I found the narrator's voice for Kristin a little grating.

Fun characters fantasy setting unexpected ending.
What did you like most about FREE: Professional Integrity (A Riyria Chronicles Tale)?
I really enjoyed the unexpected ending of the story.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Unfortunetly, I didn't have one favourite character, I had two. Hadrian and Royce. I always enjoyed their banter and the fact that each of them were so different and at the same time worked well with each other.
What does Tim Gerard Reynolds bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
He brings life to the characters. Through his naration I could here Royce's sarcasm, Hadrian's earnestness and at times I laughed outloud because of the dry way Tim Gerard Reynolds described certain scenes. Yes if I did read the books I would probably be able to hear those character's voices in my head, but because of the narration Tim Gerard Reynolds provided I had good excuse to laugh outloud without the people on the train thinking I'm crazy
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
There was a scene, which wasn't exactly moving, but it was quite ironic. Near the end when the Father is lamenting the los of his daughter and then of course things turn out differently.
Any additional comments?
if you like the Riyria series and you want a light reading snack something to occupy your time for about an hour you should pick this short story up.

Worth your time
The story was engaging enough to keep my attention from start to finish. The characters were likeable and interesting. The performance was pretty well done, he delivers each line convincingly and even manages to create a unique voice for each character. Overall it is a nice short mystery that's enough to entertain you for the entirety of its run time, and nothing beats the low low price of zero dollars.

Professional Integrity
A great little short story. A good intro (or not) to the characters of Riyria.
A good sampling of what Sullivan's stories are about. Was glad to receive this as a free audiobook; as its too short a story to pay for.

An enjoyable and enthralling tale!
A young lady engages two thieves to kidnap herself, however, they find more at stake, than a young woman's romantic notion.
l appreciated the way the narrator enhancement of the story. It made it very dramatic.
