Excellent performance by voice actors

The story isn't anything to original, and borrows a lot from DC comics as it is clearly inspired by Batman and Robin, however this does not take away much from story.

The performance by the voice actors was brilliant and really brought the characters and story to life.

You have got to love the sidekicks

I loved this book. Before it was even finished I was downloading the next book, I enjoyed it that much. I usual prefer cozy mysteries but every now and again I like a change and who doesn't love the big budget super hero film? Where you don't need much story but lots of action and spectacular fight scenes. Well with this book you get the best of both worlds. Plenty of action, a good backstory and a little mystery as to what has happened to the main super hero. I really liked the characters and could see them gracing the silver screen, the authors obviously had a lot of fun writing this book and coming up with different names. It was fun that the sidekick (actually the main character) is still at school and having to deal with bullies, which I think most people can relate to but in this case the bully gets his comeuppance. Just a fun book for any super hero fan.
What happens when the main super hero of New York goes missing? The super villains come out to play and it is left up to his sidekick (sorry his fifteen year old partner) to pick up the slack and make the streets safe once again. That is when he isn't in detention or grounded. Can Red Raptor step up to the challenge find his mentor, stay out of the way of the school bully and go up against some super villains who have escaped a maximum security prison? Oh and get his homework done all before the start of school?
I liked the narrator. He used some very good voices to bring the characters to life, I especially liked the voice he gave the French chief.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Excellent performance, but extremely predictable

I really liked the premise for this book, and the voice actor was brilliant. The plot, unfortunately, was rubbish - cliche after cliche. Wouldn’t recommend (unless you’re new to the genre, in which case you may enjoy)
