About this listen
His reputation had been secure.
He was the world's most feared supervillain!
But then he saved the world....
News cameras had captured every moment of the battle in which Doctor Fid single-handedly averted an alien invasion. As details emerge, the public discovers how close the Earth had come to inescapable subjugation...or to complete annihilation.
In the aftermath, there are many who wonder if the veteran supervillain has changed his ways. There are many who think that Doctor Fid may not be a monster after all.
Notoriety is important to many of Doctor Fid's long-term plans to punish the unworthy, and this shift in public perception threatens to undermine decades' worth of effort.... But it also presents a tempting opportunity.
New dangers arise, and through it all Doctor Fid must struggle to decide what role he will play. Can the notorious supervillain set aside his endless quest? Can Doctor Fid become the hero that the world needs?
Or will he remain the villain that the world's heroes deserve?
Any fan of the superhero genre will love this supervillainous novel. Read book two in the series that critics have called innovative, snarky, and ridiculously fun!

Good but not the first
In the first book Fid is painted as almost amoral with a soft side. In this book he is rescuing crying schoolchildren and, literally, getting kittens from trees. It's not a bad book but it feels like it drifted a bit far from the original premise.
The action was good, the characters generally good, I liked the dialogues and just wish there had been more words-based conflict. The narration was good but perhaps slightly overdone in places.
All in all it's a perfectly fine sequel but didn't quite live up to book 1's example.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
