Not the Best Book About Superpowers But Ok

I had three problems with this book.
1. The Tom Reynolds should not have narrated this book. His performance was boring and his voices were silly. Not the worst narrator ever but the book would be improved if someone better voiced it.
2. Weak diologe There is a pharagraph of innermonologe between every phrase that they conversations never seem to get a rythem going.
3. Spends more time world building than actually telling the story. for a book that 6 hours not I felt like most of the time was spent world building and establishing the rules of how the meta powers work which would be fine but the book just ends as soon as you start getting some explaination. The main character just stumbles his way thorough the plot.

Overall It was an ok take on the superhero genre but there are book that have done it better. I would recomend Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson over this book. If you have already read that and are look for more this won't completely scratch that itch but it is good enough to keep you entertained on a rainy day. I will probably continue the story but I am hoping Tom made some improvements on the second book. It is a few hours longer and won't have to set up as much back story so I am hopeful.

Cool take on superhero origin tale!

I enjoyed this listen and appreciate the angle Reynolds is taking regarding the origin of the Metas! I’m certainly looking forward to the next installment.

Good Superhero Story

Plays a bit like a glorified fanfic. Author does the audio and it comes across flat, but the story is good. It was recommended to me by a friend who loves it. I'm glad he did. I look forward to hearing the rest. If comic heroes are your thing, you'll enjoy.

Great read!

This is my first Tom Reynolds’s read. I’m extremely impressed with his talent. The story line was a tad bit cliche’, but aren’t ALL superhero stories?
Overall, it was great, but the narration should be done by a seasoned professional.

Very engaging.

This book was an engrossing story read by a talented writer and story teller. Thanks!
I hope to read more of Omni!
