What can I say but excellent

You just have to love the humour in the stories theses guys tell.
Mr Thron is a master at the voices just brilliant and the outtakes are a gem.

Dont think about it just get this book! Hilarious!

Amazing narration as always by Phil Thron and Barry J Hutchison is my new favourite author. He can't write fast enough for my liking. check out space team series, utterly barmy but brilliant!

The outtakes were just as good as the book

Mix some of the best dry comedy in audio books right now 2021) and add something or super hero deconstruction aaaand voila. Narration initially seems unremarkable but is later proven a ruse. All n all well spent credit. Recommended!

One of my top 2 comedy books

I have been trying to find a book as funny as Red Dwarf infinity welcomes careful drivers since I read it. This is the book. Is as funny as the sample.

Great book

Wonderfully entertaining superhero book. Better than most other superhero books I’ve read! I wish there were a sequel!

Sidekicks are so under valued

I loved this book. My normal genre is cozy mysteries but I like super hero films and when I fancied a change I thought I would give this book ago. So glad I did, I loved it and if this is was I have been missing I might have to change which category I look in for my audio books. I loved the humour and one lines that run though out the book. The action was well spaced and enough to keep me interested until the end, it kind of makes me think of dead pool and his misfit friends. The story was well written and takes a tongue in cheek look at super heros that I can easily see being made into a film. It was the characters that stole the show though with there very unique personalities and powers. I would be hard pressed to choice a favourite character. I hope there are more books in this series to come because I for one will be keeping a keen eye out for the next book.
What do you do when all the super heros get wiped out? You turn to the sidekicks and hope for the best. Retried or just disillusioned heros aren't the best option, especially when just normal human thugs can take them out. But when every super villain realises no body is protecting the world you have to give the world some hope. In steps in reluctant Sam aka Kid random, drunken Anna aka allergy girl and well Randy aka butterfly king and to whip them all in to shape they turn to an ex evil super villain John. What could go wrong?
Wow I have never heard a narrator enjoy himself so much (and I don't just mean all the out takes at he end of the book) and his voices were amazing, each and everyone very different from the last. Defiantly a very good choice.
I was given this free review audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Creative take on the super hero world

It’s difficult to describe this book without giving spoilers; however, I found it to be thoroughly amusing. The situation the ‘heroes’ find themselves in is somewhat desperate but all the main characters are built up to explain their various outlooks. There are twists and turns throughout the story but everything is funny. At the conclusion of the book, there is a section that is out-takes of Phil Thron’s narration and this is hilarious. It’s Phil breaking down and laughing at many of the bits I laughed at.
The narration is brilliant, a different voice for every character and they all seemed to fit the description.

Sort of superheros: assemble!

Cityopolis citizens are continuously saves by superheros and have grown so used to it that they don't even consider the perils of being close to supervillains. But this changes dramatically when all superheros are gone, and cityopolis needs their sidekicks to jump into action. Trouble is, the sidekicks are not so sure it they are more capable of saving or totally destroying the city.

What a funny book! The narrator did an excellent job and we should always have the outtakes at the end.. loved it! Audible, please do more of this.
