Publisher's summary

Under secret orders to assassinate the Widow, Hawkeye, the rough-edged marksman, finds himself caught up in a violent prison break that releases some of the world's most vicious and powerful criminals. Defying his superiors, Hawkeye joins forces with the sultry Russian spy and a mismatched group of personalities that include Spider-Man, Spider-Woman, Luke Cage, Captain America, and Iron Man.

Unexpected betrayals and shocking revelations lead the team from Manhattan's top security Raft prison to the untamed jungle of the Savage Land in this thrilling novel.

To much cut content

To start this a good adaptation with good voice acting and a great cast. The problem being that the changes from source material just don't work for me. Wolverine is cut out completely from the story and is the replaced with Hawkeye and black widow. The problem is this leads to problems with the story since Hawkeye was one of the original avengers killed by scarlet witch. They also completely jumped the gun on the Spider woman arc exposing her as a double agent and tossing out her future arcs. The story does follow the main plot with the break out from the fact and the forming of the new avengers.

If your looking for a standalone story then this isn't a bad choice, but if your hoping for a close adaptation then your going to be disappointed.

It's Just Ok

An ok superhero action novel. its ultimately nothing special, majority of the characters don't get development and some of the development is somewhat questionable. That said, the voice cast is quite good and match each of their rolls well. Unfortunately the novel isn't really worth the price asked, the money can be used on better books. So I can't really recommend it at its current price.

Much more depth than expected.

Essentially a Hawkeye, Jessica Drew, & Black Widow POV of the events adapted from the comics. I enjoyed the novelization despite some of the changes, and really appreciated a greater depth to some of the characters. This is especially true for Black Widow, who we find after just defecting from the BW program. Good listen, the full cast really helps these comic stories pop. Loved it.

Very confused by comic differences

The voice acting and music were great. I believe the accents were well done and the chemistry between the characters was felt. But the story…………

I have no clue why this was altered so drastically. I understand that movies need to be adapted sometimes to modernized things to be a bit more relatable and some things Cant be done because the budget would be in the trillions.

But this is reading and conveying the story, characters, and setting through words only, so why was the story touched? Wolverine and the Sentry were taking out of the book and Hawkeye and Black Widow were put in. Why?

Then Hawkeye is a Shield agent with no ties to the Avengers, yet during the story they mention that Scarlet Witch went nuts and decimated the Avengers. Well, during that huge ordeal, Hawkeye, who was a damn Avenger at the time, was famously killed during the madness. So if you’re gonna go the route of including the characters, how was that missed?

Why was it necessary to include Hawkeye and Black widow at all? And why force this love triangle into the story with Clint, Nat, and Jess to begin with? And you got rid of Wolverine as well as the Sentry!? The man was in a cell at the Raft and helped the heroes by flying Carnage into space and literally tearing him in half.

All of it seemed like an unnecessary maneuver. So while I enjoyed listening to the acting, I didn’t enjoy the story because the changes didn’t enhance it only made it disappointing.

A fantastic read!

A fantastic read! I got it in order to get a better sense of what the Marvel movies might be doing 8n the future. I was not expecting this being a whole production with sound effects, music and different voice actors. loved it very much!

Not Bad for a Performance Piece

Pros: The voice actors were mostly quality casting choices; Iron Man and Hawkeye were particularly well done. Story moved quickly, though it is not directly adapted from the original comic run, and seems to have left segments of the novel out as well.

Cons: Distracting foley work for many sound effects took away from the narration. Russian accents seemed a bit overplayed.

Entertaining!

Lots of action, but Luke needed a little more screen time. Look forward to more Avengers stories.

Good Superhero Story

This was a good representation of the original New Avengers story. Well written and action packed. The presentation was excellent. I enjoyed the full cast, sound effects, and music.
