This review will be read INSTANTLY!

The story could be great...but you could play a drinking game every time the word "instantly" is used. To many words mispronounced by the narrator. One example that really stood out to me was igneous rock, it was pronounced in genius rock. It makes it pretty hard to listen to. The other problem I had was it sounds like there is a slight echo in the recording. I even listed to some other books and music to make sure it wasn't my headphones. Some good notes. The story is pretty good. Non stop action, that's for sure. Pretty cool super powers as well.

Great adventures

This book kept me going for my entire road trip. A great collection of super hero's with quite an array of super powers. Each adventure was better than the last which lead to a great finally. Great job Mr. Angelo.

Out of this world adventure

What made the experience of listening to Hyperforce the most enjoyable?

A fun and interesting take on the "stranger in a strange land" premise.

The pace of the action.

What does Zachary Owen Turner bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He brings the characters to life.

Any additional comments?

This sounded like a mid 70s Marvel comic come to life!

Fun from start to finish!

What made the experience of listening to Hyperforce the most enjoyable?

Zachary Owen Turner. This man has a future in audiobook recordings! He literally gets into character every time he speaks, bringing all of the characters he voices alive.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Solaron: Imagine if Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic of the Fantastic Four), Hank Pym (Ant-Man/Giant Man/Yellowjacket of The Avengers) and Ray Palmer (The Atom of the Justice League) were fused into one super-genius intellect with Captain Atom's powers. That's him.

Have you listened to any of Zachary Owen Turner’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No. But I would now. He's outstanding!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me laugh many times. Because Zachary Turner got into the essence of the characters and the inflections in his voice when he changed from character to character was amazing. And as things got tense throughout the book, Mr. Turner delivered the goods. Mr. Angelo chose well when he chose Mr. Turner to read HYPERFORCE.

Any additional comments?

A well done enterprise by Mr. Angelo and Mr. Turner. I hope they work together again soon. The only thing missing from the audiobook was added sound effects. And God help me if there's another edition of the audiobook with sound effects added in with Mr. Turner narrating. Now that would be a dream come true. A true 5/5 stars. A must listen. Especially, if you have a lot of time on your hands. I highly recommend listening to this book.
