I previously did a bad review.

OK, like the title says, I previously did a bad review. Writing it right after I was finished with the audiobook and really didn't let it set in. This time though thinking about it I can say. I enjoyed it more than I originally thought and it really made me think of the 1990 Spider-Man Animated Series. It really follows those story verbatim. So if you enjoyed the Spider-Man Animated series I would recommend this book.

This was Spider-Man?

Hear me out... I’m pretty sure the author just re-skinned one of his previously written thrillers.

Spider-Man didn’t act like Spider-Man. There was nearly no need for it to have even been him. Could have been anyone at all.

This was dark. Very dark. And I don’t mind dark. But either this writer has never read a Spider-Man comic, or this wasn’t originally supposed to be a Spider-Man novel.
