Mad scientists have never had it so tough. In super-hero comics, graphic novels, films, TV series, video games, and even works of what may be fiction, they are besieged by those who stand against them, devoid of sympathy for their irrational, megalomaniacal impulses to rule, destroy, or otherwise dominate the world as we know it. It’s just not fair. So those of us who are so twisted and sick that we love mad scientists have created this guide.

They call me the Spider. I'm the most feared assassin in the South -- when I'm not busy at the Pork Pit cooking up the best barbecue in Ashland. As a Stone elemental, I can hear everything from the whispers of the gravel beneath my feet to the vibrations of the soaring Appalachian Mountains above me. My Ice magic also comes in handy for making the occasional knife. But I don't use my powers on the job unless I absolutely have to. Call it professional pride.

A Fun Read
What did you love best about Poker Pulp?
The overall concept of having stories in which the protagonist's future depends on the outcome of a poker game. Each story uses the theme in a different way, and brings in several interesting characters to flesh out the plot.
What did you like best about this story?
Even though the story endings were pretty predictable, the plot developments along the way made the stories fun to listen to.
Have you listened to any of Scott Sutherland’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is the first of Scott's books that I've listened to, but it won't be the last. A small disclaimer: I know Scott personally. He is a very talented actor, and that talent is definitely on display here. The characters are very distinct and the pacing of the storytelling is just right.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
These stories are - as the title implies - pulp fiction. They're not meant to be heavy or intellectual. They are meant to entertain, and they do that very well. No lessons, just fun stories.
Any additional comments?
This was my first book from Audible, but I will certainly be downloading more in the future.
