Resumen del Editor

Sean's spent the last 16 years of his life using his powers in a never-ending quest of exacting vengeance while saving the lives of innocent victims. The problem however, is that's all Sean has been doing. Forced to hide who and what he is from the world, Sean's life has become a fairly meaningless existence.

But after an unexpected weekend with a rather willing woman, Sean suddenly realizes that there's a lot more to life than an endless stream of criminals and vengeance. It's time to let someone else punish the guilty.

It's time to start enjoying life.

Note: Contains harem, violence, bad language, and a fair amount of partying.

can't believe I'm saying this...

there was too much sex in this book. its part of what made it great, but even I was sick of it at the end

One of my favorites

There's no cringe language or characters, unlike many books I'm reading with similar themes. Stry van knows his stuff.

An action-packed, adult comic book antihero story!

This was a kickass sexually charged, comic bookesk superhero/villain antihero, adventure. The MC, Shadow Cat or just simply Shadow, has to be one of the coolest comic book antiheroes that I've ever read. Jan Stryvant did an excellent job at creating this character and bringing his story out for everyone to enjoy. I'm a huge fan of his work and have read and or listened too probably between 15 and 20 of his books. Shadow is definitely different than Stryvant's other series' but he still shows a lot of his same style and traits visible in his work. It kept me captivated from start to finish. It reminded me of an NC-17 version of Rules of Supervillainy by CT Phipps, Origins of a D-List Super Villain by Jim Bernheimer, and Villains Rule by MK Gibson. (Also with a bit of Eden Redd thrown into the mix.) Though more action packed, sexually charged, and darker then those other books. Ironically the narrator Charlie Boxwood, has very suspiciously similar sound to the narrator Jeffrey Kafer, who narrated the three villain books listed above. Jeffrey Kafer is, in my opinion, one of the best audiobook narrators out there. He really knows how to capture the sarcasm, wit, and overall cool nature of comic book type antiheroes. Kafer, er... ah... I mean, Boxwood was the perfect choice to narrate this book! He really brought Shadow to life. Between the writing and narration this book is five stars all around and definitely worth the purchase. I sincerely hope that more Shadow books will be coming out in the future.

Great story if you ever wanted to know what it’s like being a superhero / villain and walking the path you chose

This book is a great story about being a super and the story of one man walking the path he chose both good and bad. It is a great one off book full of excitement and action.

Highly recommended

Probably the best book this author has written. Action packed and shows a perspective from a villain or anti-hero that isn't cliche.

surprising

the book hooks you in good quick and keeps you right there the whole time fantastic

A little bit of bad, a little bit of goob, or some of both.

Shadow, a weircat shifter drifts into town looking for a fresh start in the bad part of town. His car half is pure preaditor, killing without qualms. Following his own set of values. He's hounded by the city's supers for no reason! ... Well, I'm there may be a dead guy, or twelve, and the odd bank loan here or there, then there's a fem super with a taste for cats. But Shadow Cat's just trying g to get along! And sex, rather a lot of sex, and gruesome killings. But hey, give it a try!

interesting book. I loved it.

okay. this book is good but it is very sex filled. know this in advance.. great action. great story

another fantastic book

I love the author, this book has a great storyline, and it is very relatable (in some aspects ) if you like contemporary dark fantasy then you'll love this book.

Another Excellent Story!

Another Genre another excellent story by Jan Stryvant! I enjoyed the character progression throughout this book and I certainly enjoyed the plot it was nice to have a complete story in one book. But I certainly wouldn’t complain to revisiting the characters in a new story! The narration was excellent and helped to set the tone for the book. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys hard action, hard loving any books where decisions are not necessarily black and white.
