Superteam

Raptors, Book 2

De: Jaime Castle, CJ Valin

Narrado por: Jackie Meloche, Jessica Almasy

If you didn’t listen to Sidekick, you’ve gotta listen to that first. Trust me.

If you did...

Wow. Who saw that coming? I know I didn’t. As you know, I’m the Red Raptor. Now that things have...changed, I’ve asked my friend Amy to help tell the story. No, seriously, she’s just a friend. I mean - I guess if it were up to me? But...no.

Okay, so there’s a new threat - a bunch of punks called the Neon Knights. They’re causing mayhem, armed with some kind of plasma-photon-light weapons that I can’t even begin to understand, and as usual, I’ve gotta stop them.

However, this time I’ve got help. That’s right, I formed my own superteam. One for the ages.

But first, I’ve gotta do my shift at Big Frankie Junior’s. What? You like eating burgers, right? Well, someone has to cook them.

We can’t be heroes all the time.

From number one Audible best sellers Jaime Castle and CJ Valin comes the next installment from the best new superhero universe, perfect for fans of both DC and Marvel.

Actually, it’s for fans of anything superhero-related. You’re gonna like it. Promise.

It was an alright book

The story was great however the main character seem to lose a lot of what made them great in first book. In other words the characters did not build the crumbled

Heroes are Humans After All—And Not Always Nice

Whether we have superhuman strength or powers that are the envy of millions, we are still people, with all of the flaws that go with it. That was my take-away from Book 2. And the story manages to weave it just so that we don’t hate the characters. But their likability takes a realistic hit, with pettiness, selfishness, envy and outright disregard for the feelings of potential love interests. Through it all, of course, the characters slowly grow.

The gang's all here

Tired of being just sidekicks, Sawyer and Amy interview young superhero candidates with an eye towards creating their own supergroup. The talents are varied and even scary, and some folks have to leave disappointed. However, the candidates who are chosen - including Sawyer's buddy Javier - are eager to get to work. First, of course, comes training.
The team, calling themselves The Resistors, soon encounter a new team of evil bank-robbing superheroes, dubbed the Neon Knights, who have lots of powerful electronic tools in their arsenal and prove rather hard to beat.
Sawyer's suspicions that the school bully Logan is trying to break into a life of crime are confirmed when Logan replaces the Neon Knight that they put into the hospital..

The Story was mostly Red Raptor’s again, which was good but there should have been more teamwork since the title was Superteam!

The character of Osprey was almost unnecessary. The story would have moved faster without her.

Stumbled upon this series

Listen to the first book before this or not much would make sense.. it’s like watching a series and starting with the second season..This was better was better than the first.. plus the narrator giving Amy a voice I can dig it. Looking forward to the next book!!

Just as good as good!

This second book was just as the title says just as good as the first book! Loving the characters and their bantering it’s soo good and your going to love it too! To the next one!

always great listens

this was a great continuation from the 1st book sidekicks, and I am really looking forward to the 3rd book with the cliffhanger at the end

This is how you write a comic book as a novel.

It's a comic book. It's not deep literature.
It's fun.
It's light hearted.
It makes you feel good during and after you listen.
The performers do a great job and I am not embarrassed to listen with my children or grandparents listening. The characters are continually developed as the story progresses. I would love to see more from this universe.

Awesome 😎

It is amazing it’s all SUPER cool pardon the pun it was way better than the first one (still pretty good) it’s way more appropriate and better storyline I’d rate it 12 pg the first like 14 so personally don’t bother just get it

fast moving and funny.

I enjoyed the story and the performance. The two readers are very good. I can actually see in my head the different people that are talking. I like to know that the good guys are actually good guys. Not that the next the good guys could go bad.
