The Wraith

Superhero by Night, Book 4

De: Jeffery H. Haskell

Narrado por: Lacy Laurel

I may be super, but I'm no hero. I have one rule: If you're evil, you die. No trial, no judge, no mercy.

Madisun Dumas, a.k.a. The Wraith, is close to achieving her goals. She faked her own incarceration, so now the government will leave her alone. She wiped out ISO-1 in South America and added their top man to her kill list...then she found out who was really in charge... 

An honest-to-God alien. A creature called the Th'un, who goes by the moniker Mr. Axiom.

Taking on aliens is outside her wheelhouse and she knows it. There is only one person on Earth who can help her: Amelia Lockheart, the Full Metal Superhero.

There's a problem, though. Madisun's methods are a bit...extreme. Compared to Madi, Arsenal is a goody-two-shoes, and working with her could cause a conflict Madisun doesn't want.

Can the cold-blooded killer of men work with the superhero who is used to saving lives, not taking them? Or will the alien kill two birds with one stone?

If Madi can't make it work, getting along with the superhero community will be the least of her problems...the Th'un is out for revenge, and only every life on Earth will satisfy him.

Great Book

I really enjoyed this one and it was awesome to see other characters from the universe in this one. I cannot wait to finish both series!

Crossover with Full Metal Superhero

4.5 stars.

Finally, the Wraith is approaching her goal of final justice for her family, btu this time she has the help of Arsenal. This is a crossover with the Full Metal Superhero series, and probably should be read after book 8 (IIRC) of that series to avoid spoilers.

Here we see Wraith climbing to the apex of the Sorting Algorithm of Evil in her attempt to serve justice on all the people responsible for the deaths of her family. And the final antagonist is worthy of that top spot.

The interaction of the two series protagonists is interesting and the conflicted reactions of their supporters makes for complex relationships.

This series relies for much of its worldbuilding on the companion series, which does impact the enjoyment a bit if you're not reading both series close in time.

Not the best in the series, in part because of its reliance on its companion, but still very good and highly recommended for any fan of superhero fiction.

AMust Read!!!

This book has it all. Super heroes, Tactical Combat, Aliens, Monsters, etc. But it all fit together perfectly like fresh ingredients in a deluxe salad adding to the flavor.

Great book!

I can’t get enough of this series. How has the world not found this yet?
Madisun Dumas is a very gritty, unapologetic antihero.
This is darker and slightly more mature than Arsenal’s series is.
Great series, great characters.
I recommend this to fans of superhero fiction.

I love this series

Madison Dumas is a bad mutha! I will be checking out Arsenal as well. I appreciate how they did the team up.
