Scalzi’s Starter Villian can be an entertaining light read if a reader avoids the audio version. Unfortunately, the narrator is far too enthusiastic and in a short time began to wear on my nerves. I finished the audio addition, but regret having purchased it rather than a hard copy.

This was HILARIOUS. A rare 10/10 for me, as I never felt like the supervillain plots went over my head and it had some incredible gags.
