Publisher's summary

One night with a superpowered babe. Alan Star thinks he's the luckiest guy in the world, but fantasy turns into nightmare when a late-night meetup with a heroine turns deadly. To the dismay of the powers-in-charge, Alan has stumbled upon the dirty truth behind the squeaky-clean image of the hero business. Soon, everyone from government black ops to angry superpowered flames want to shut him up. Permanently. With nowhere else to run, Alan escapes to the one place that the heroes won't go: the underground world of a fabled hero-killer. There, he discovers the key to becoming the greatest hero of all. Alan will have to gain new powers, seduce even more superpowered babes, and face the true menace lurking in the shadows. Witness the birth of the Red Light Hero. Warning: This book contains diverse adult situations and possibly unwholesome interactions such as superpowered flings, polyamory, and biology experiments gone wild. Think the Avengers meets Fifty Shades of Grey. This book also contains light gamelit mechanics in the final act.

This was actually pretty good

I was pleasantly surprised with this audiobook... it kinda reminded me of "The Boys" TV series. The story was intriguing and kept me entertained the entire way. The virtual narrator was not great but it was actually better than a some human narrators I've heard. It was clear and easy to understand.

If you like "The Boys", I recommend you check out this book.

Nope

Shen has written a good story. The virtual narration destroyed the tale. This is a perfect story for dual narration and I hope Shen may at some point be able to afford doing that. The voice has weird pauses at odd times. It lacks inflection and when narrating a females voice, it does not alter the tone, or pitch.

I thought I'd give the virtual voice narration a try and I did ... it is more than rare I give up after only five chapters. The good news, is that it was free and I can remove it from my library. If Audible continues with "virtual" narration, I hope they spend time developing the process.
