De: C. T. Phipps

Narrado por: Heather Costa, Jeffrey Kafer

Cindy Wakowski a.k.a. Red Riding Hood is the second-most feared villain in Falconcrest City. Unfortunately, she soon discovers that is only because she's considered Merciless: The Supervillainy without Mercy™'s favorite henchwoman. Determined to prove herself every bit her boyfriend's equal, if not superior, Cindy assembles a team of other villains to go after the largest treasure trove in the world: the hoard of the Dragon King.

Unfortunately, things start going sideways from the start. An ex-boyfriend of hers turned eldritch horror wants revenge, other villains don't want anything to do with her plan, and the Foundation for World Harmony has put out a death warrant on her head. Merciless has also decided to engage in a little friendly competition that Cindy wants nothing to do with. Can she steal slay the dragon and claim its treasure? Will she let her ego and impatience get in the way? Also, who is Red Sindi and what relationship does she have with our antiheroine?

Tales of Supervillainy: Cindy's Seven is the eighth novel of the best-selling Supervillainy Saga series and the first from the perspective of its most popular supporting character!

Ehhhhh... definitely mediocre for this series.

First I'd like to start out by saying that I am a CT Phipps fan and the supervillainy series is one of my favorites. However, for whatever reason this book was mediocre. I'm not going to say that it was bad because it wasn't bad. BUT, it definitely wasn't up to the level of the other books in the series. The narration was good but Cindy's voice was more annoying than anything. I know actors/narrators have a vast array of voices that they use and not all of them are as appealing as others. I just don't think that the choice for Cindy's voice was up to par with her personality. A lot of the story seemed forced and the normal banter and pop culture references just didn't measure up with the other books. This might be a good reason to show why supporting cast should stay supporting. Cindy is a great character overall but she's definitely a supporting character and not a good one for a main focus. If you're a fan of the series it might be worth giving it a listen but I would have to say it's definitely the bottom of the list out of all the supervillainy books in the series.

just cant get enough of C T Phipps humore

have loved everything about this series, it doesn't take its self too serious and always makes me smile when listening to it. hope this series never ends! And ps. the author is a great guy that interacts with his fans online A LOT!!

Fun Time

Even tho it's kinda a spin off, this book and the series are great. You'll love the story and the characters, or at least have fun listening!

Cindy wants and deserves to be seen as more.

I listened to the audio book, and Heather voicing Cindy, I thought her accent was natural for her. But, I needed to adjust to her pace. I even slowed the audio at times because I couldn't keep up with her quick speak. I know Cindy has many great references but the words all ran together and I struggled to catch all the quick remarks. These books are always known for the fun fantasy, science fiction, and 80's references.

All are close. Like one big family. They love each other and know there are flaws in each, but they work together to cover for where one is less. Like Cindy knows she's not a good mom, so there's Mandy and Amanda and Gary's sister and such a close network here that help raise the girls and help each other. I love the comfort here.

Cindy is tired of being Gary's hench woman and wants to be seen as more. So she comes up with her own plan...steal the dragon's treasure. However, this mission becomes way more than such a simple task. There's more going on with the dragon! And with a few of the family members. They all face something personal as the story goes.

Mandy comments that Cindy is mentally 14. lol! I have to agree with this! She's a chatter box and half of what's said doesn't make sense in logic. lol.

These are fun adventures with Cindy at the lead with her friends and family. Always fun in this world.

a change of pace

it's was interesting hearing the story from Cindy's point of view. wasn't the best book in the series but solid for sure.
