Publisher's summary

Cal Stringel returns in the fourth volume of the D-List Supervillain series! One of the few heroes he respects has been captured, and now, Cal must rely on his wit, technical skills, and a healthy dose of The Big Lie, to pull off a daring rescue from inside a villain's base.

Along the way, he and his team of New Renegades will have to worry about an imposter, human/animal Manglermal hybrids, a naked woman, an evil scientist, a terrifying plan, and the ever intrusive presence of Big Brother. Can Cal keep the fact that he's really alive a secret? What hidden truths has Aphrodite been holding onto and how will it change their relationship?

All these questions await Cal, but, most importantly, why are you still reading the description? You should already be listening to chapter one!

I liked it but too short

This is my least favorite of the series so far. I thought it was too short and the secondary storyline was never dealt with. What seemed like the most important part of the story was simply pushed off to the next episode - this should have been included and made into a bigger novel. I liked it enough to keep with the series of course, but I wanted a more out of this one. I wanted the arc of a novel and felt like I got a novella.

Great addition to the story line

I’ve enjoyed Cal from his first story. This addition did not disappoint. I love his inner turmoil to be both who he is and try to be a good guy too. He is an applicable anti hero. The story is lined with wisdom and wit. I recommend it.

Another Great in a Four Book Series (currently)

I've enjoyed Jim Bernheimer's Supervillain series immensely and this one is no exception. Jeffrey Kafer's production of the audio book is superb and couldn't be better. The words are laugh out loud funny and Kafer adds the perfect inflection and tone to make this a truly funny audio book.
The inventiveness of Bernheimer is beyond compare, why he isn't working for SpaceX to come up with new ideas is beyond me.

The four stars for story was just because "it ended too damn quickly!"

Great book, but strange way to end the series.

The Kindle of this book was published in August of 2017, and with the way this book ends, I'd have thought that a 5th book would have been out by now.
But, regardless, this is a great story, and you won't go wrong getting it.
I sure hope a book 5 comes out in the near future. 🤞🤞

wonderful

The story continues and Jeffrey Kafer sounds so much better my iPhone reading the kindle version.
Many questions are answered as the series moves along. If you have not read the first book buy this one but don't listen to it until you have bought the rest and caught up.

a fun run

the books are a fun romp, tending to be meandering now, but I hope the writer gains more focus in the next installment.

Great addition.

This series keeps improving with every book. The plots get better and Strings stays the same. I look forward to the next one and hopefully Kafer will keep narrating.
