For Kids 5-7 like Audible says, maybe up to 12y.

I bought this book because I want to keep my kids interested in books and also get them into audiobooks. I started listening to it as if it were one of my books and realized I can't because complex story lines would disinterest kids, so I listened to it compared to books like Charlotte's Web, Tom Sawyer and younger kids reading books.
From this point of view, yes, this is quite an interesting listen that would keep kids interested with the ideas of super powers and some unexpected events in the scenes. No large vocabulary, no deep character back stories, no plot twists, no foul language, nothing that would make you think "Hey, I'm 37 and I really think the author was trying to say something to me to change my life.", yeah, none of that.
This is a kids book through and through, basic setup, basic plot, interesting characters with easily pronounced names. Feodor Chin does a great job reading this with the idea, this book is for kids.
I would not suggest this to another adult unless they wanted to listen to it prior to their kids listen to it as I have done.

Mediocre at best

Potentially interesting concept, but the story falls short. I almost gave up on it several times and will not bother with the sequels. Also, some of the accents of the characters are pretty awful.

pretty good

good book decent story dont get why people think its terible fights are good so pretty good and alot of books are pridictable so i dont get why people complaning also why you guys complaning when you didnt even finnish the book but this is a great book

Amazing

The book is so great and so interesting. A great fictional thriller. Can't wait to read the next book

fun book for anyone that enjoys a 'Super' story

I enjoyed this book. and my kids 8-14 thought it was fantastic! (We also bought the hard copy for my son so he could read along.) This is a great springboard for what I hope will be a great 'super' series.

Great for a younger audience

The writing was geared to younger readers, the characters were too formulaic for me, but I would have thought this AWESOME when I was around 12 yrs old. So for that audience I give this high marks. Clean language. I'm keeping this book so I can share it with my son in a few years when he is older and can enjoy it.

Mehh...

I feel as though this book is more suited for younger readers, 10, 11, 12.

great news series from Stan Lee

great news series from Stan Lee. really enjoyed I couldn't put it down. when does book 2 come

Like Listening To A Comic Book

Would you try another book from Stan Lee and Stuart Moore and/or Feodor Chin?

Yes, I enjoy Stan Lee's work in other media and this was right in line with his usual story telling style.

Would you recommend The Zodiac Legacy: Convergence to your friends? Why or why not?

Those interested in comics or those interested in YA novels, yes. This fits both of those genre very well.

What does Feodor Chin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Honestly, his performance was fairly generic. Not bad by any means, but does not stand out as "special" to me.

Do you think The Zodiac Legacy: Convergence needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Other than the epilogues, it could have been a stand alone book. As it is, there are two additional volumes.

Any additional comments?

If you like Stan Lee's comic stories, then you will like this.

Loved it!

I love this new story! Great, clean new stuff by the master. The characters were difficult for the narrator to juggle with, but he did a great job!
