Enemy of My Enemy (A Daredevil Marvel Crime Sereis)

This is a Marvel Crime novel featuring Matt Murdock, otherwise named Daredevil.  It appears that Punisher has killed a cop and Kingpin.  He gives himself up and Matt signs up to be his lawyer against Foggy’s vote, Punisher is adamant he never killed a cop but never said yes or no to Kingpin and doesn’t help Matt put together a defense. Hat leaves Matt to do what he can in the courtroom but he can do so much more on the streets as Daredevil with big thanks to his newspaper friend Ben.  I will stop there because you need the read the rest yourself.

This was so good but being a fan of these offshoots of Marvel I figured I would like it.  If you are a purest of the original comic there might be some differences, but I didn’t mind.  I would have to say I like Daredevil the most as he has really no superpowers, just what he has been trained for since he lost his sight as a child. This book is action packed and fast paced so hang on this will be quite the ride.

 

Amari and the Metalwork Menace

Amari doesn’t really want to go back to the agency, she is doing great and is happy just being a teen, she has even been accepted into a prestigious swim camp that will help her boost up for next year and the his is Amari’s world and she not to sure she wants it to end.  She has like 24 hours to answer the summons on her decision, either she goes back to being agent or gets a memory wipe.  The agency has also sweetened the pot by inviting her and a select few other to spend summer learning and testing their skills and some maybe promoted.  But soon things change very quickly and Amari isn’t left with much of a choice as this new whatever it is turning people into metal hits very close to home.

I loved the first Amari book and somehow missed the next two but was able to pick right up with this the fourth book without missing to much.  It moved quickly and was full of action, this was not a book to be put down for long, sorry parents, but hey you all might like it too.  It is really a wonderful fun and great for anyone book or if need be the audiobook narrated by Imani Parks is awesome she puts you in the story through her voice.

 

The Lost Cave

When a strange book if found at Raven’s dad dig site it sparks treasure fever among many and with outlaw days going on it is even intensified and sought out by even more people.  Can Raven and her friends solve the clues and beat every one else to the treasure?  During all of this she is keeping the biggest secret of her life from her sister, one that is tearing them both up in different ways. 

Oh, my there is so much to say about this wonderful, action packed, suspenseful, fun book.  This is a book that even reluctant readers will like if they like mysteries and action.  I truly don’t want to give any of the fun away by saying to much but this is a wonderful book, I need to go find the first book now.  Oh, and please write more in the series, please.

 

M*A*S*H

I read as much of Hooker's series as I could find in used book shops back in the day, and being a big fan of the movie and TV show MASH did not hurt in the least, but know they are different from one another somewhat.  I have to say to see this pop up as a audiobook now was kind of a shock.  But it was like coming home to friends and just picking up where you left off.  Voice actor and narrator Scott Brick brings it all back to life every bit.  All the regulars and some not as well-known faces but he still makes the swamp the best place to be when not in surgery.  These good ole boys will always be doctors first and soldiers, well somewhere much further down the line. This is still a awesome series.  

 

The Last Legends Galaxy in Flames

Axel and his crew find themselves sitting around being the hero.  When a chance at a new adventure arrives to do something, anything, they jump but have they thought about all it will involve in their defense they didn’t have much time the portal is only open certain days and certain years.  But the enemy wants the prize too and is willing to risk it all to get it from Axel and his crew.  Does the alien relic have any say in the matter?

This is a action packed very suspenseful book/audiobook, it helded me from the start and did not let me go until the end, the author is a master story teller and his voice actor Mark Boyett is awesome and just bring the story to life with his voice it is a wonder to hear the book I loved every bit of it and can’t wait for more.

 

Dungeon Crawler Carl #1

I loved this book (even though it was big for my reluctant reader self). I could totally see this happening (LOL) to our planet, why not most people love reality TV so why not be a contestant, even if unwilling.  Carl finds himself in the dungeon because his ex-girlfriend’s, who is probably dead now anyways, cat ran outside and Carl chased her so when the building denigrated with all the people in them Carl was left out in the cold and with no shoes or pants.   If that wasn’t bad enough, Princess Doughnut, the cat has better stats then Carl, dammit Doughnut.  But also, now Doughnut and Carl can talk to each other as they make it through the first levels of the dungeon.  I really loved how the author caught Doughnuts inner self, just like a cat.

 

The Academy V Cup Of Nations

Wow Leo and his friend in Middleton are having a great summer when he gets a call from Samantha offering Leo a opportunity to try out to play for the USA junior national team in the Cup of nations (like the World Cup but for the developmental teams. The USA team is ranked last and only are in it because the USA is the host nation.  Will this be the case or will the team rise to the challenge?

Now by this point you should know I love this series.  I like the real obstacles Leo and his friends need to get past and might even need to trust or talk to another player to get through.  These kids have had to grow up much faster as they are often in different countries, and spend a lot of their time without their parents or coaches.  Leo is lucky to have friends back home that are great and just a text away for him as well as his dad and Messi.  This is a great series and is a fun read for everyone, old and young but especially anyone who likes soccer (football).
