Publisher's summary

Supervillains are murdering people in the streets, but yet superheroes are more concerned with gaining popularity than bringing the villains to justice.

These villains think they are above the law and that nobody can stop them, but they never planned for me. I’ll murder every one of them with my powersuit, traps, and sidekicks.

And if killing bad guys makes me a villain in the eyes of the heroes, well...I’ll destroy them too.

To be any better there would have to be video

A fantastic team of narrators combines with a great story that ends up closer to a radio show than an audio book. If only every audio book took the time to do it this well.

A private billionaire inventor fight crime story

Enjoyed the premise and the characters. Incompetent corrupt superhero team is like the seven in the boys. Like harem elements are minimal.

BAHAHAHA!!! ITS LIKE EVIL BATMAN WITH HOT CHIC SIDEKICKS

Hilarious!!! Superheroes act like varsity highschool quarterbacks or the average Navy Seal (cocky and arrogant to the point of ridiculousness) & finally a book where we actually get to see some justice served with a side of vengeance. The bad guys dont get to make it out alive. Warning: this book has some borderline porn scenes!!! While I do not like that in books, the story is worth over looking that little bit unnecessary disgustingness. The voice actors do an outstanding job. And the female robot voice is absolutely alluring. If only you could defend your own family, life,& property in the real world without having to worry about crooked cops, judges, & laws trying to send you to prison for your evolutional right (or god given right, if you believe in that ridiculousness) to survive & thrive. We need more authors like Logan Jacobs.

Pleasantly surprised

Not usually a fan of superhero stories, but this one caught my interest. And I was not disappointed. The storyline actually sounds more viable than the atypical superhero story. Once again LJ didn't overdo the sex scenes, a fact that I applaud. Don't get me wrong, I do love sex scenes. Just think they should used to accent the story instead of being the story.
GREAT JOB LJ and team

I like this kinda Anti-Hero books...

The main character is like a Tony Stark / Iron Man kinda hero with a Punisher-ish vibe. The sex is very much minimize until the very end and should be fine for those who expect it.

I like the idea of reducing Criminals permanently and this book delivers. It is rather short and it seems like I breezed through it so quickly because it was very enjoyable pace. Please let this be a long 10 book series of this theme and I hope the Omni-Average chick becomes average of a Super-God level or something quirky like that. I just hate the idea she may never improve.

Sometimes you need a Anti-Villian to do the job.

The best way to describe him is Tony Stark with half the Asshole mix with Punishers Morales. Yes, he is playboy Multimillionaire but he is not held back by false morality. He knows that some of these Villians are far worse than many serial killers and need to be put down permanently. Now watch him grow and adapt gradually not giving God mode like most characters like him.

Fantastic

if you like a power fantasy and an oft kilter look at the dynamics between superheroes and villains this is a fantastic book for it.


I understand the logistic nightmare it must be to get more than one voice to narrate a story but every audiobook that has done it has added so much because of it.

Iron Man meets Batman

Overall, a interesting cross-section of iron man / batman rich, smart, and arrogant. Makes for an interesting book, the world is an interesting new land with super heroes and villains portrayed in a whole new light. Its a fun ride!
