Resumen del Editor

In a world of heroes, one man lives to watch them fall.

Terrax Prime is one of the safest places in the galaxy, a world-spanning metropolis built on the foundations of order, justice, and law. Terrax also happens to be a birthplace of heroes; humans born with powerful, world-altering super-powers. In service to the prime government, these heroes work to keep the streets of Terrax safe, acting as the world's super-hero police force...or so it seems.

Terrible secrets lie deep within the core of Terrax Prime’s hero program, and one man will do whatever he can to bring those secrets to the surface....

Enter Aiden Grant, the Hero Hunter. Plagued by the scars of his past and armed with a suit of power armor and the augmented reality companion Vella, Aiden will take the fight to the shadowy leaders of Terrax Prime, even if he has to kill every last hero in his way.

I just wish it were longer!

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I'm a huge GameLit/LitRPG fan and felt this was a good, if a bit short, example. It is a slightly different twist on the genre, which I think is a good thing. I thought the narration was fantastic and the story is pretty good. All in all, I enjoyed this one a lot and REALLY wish it were longer! Bring on more Mr. Hultberg!

Excellent

Great addition to the superhero genre. Great characters and I loved the narration. The book is well worth the time 5 ⭐️

Very Well Done

I requested this audio because one of my favorite narrator's performed this. As always he work was excellent.
Not knowing what to expect, I was really pleased to find I enjoy the characters and the new world that was created. I will definitely look forward to hearing more of this series and of course from Mr. Bennett.

Excellent Grimdark Superpowers with Light Gamelit

This is a great addition to the anti-hero subgenre of superpower scifi. The gamelit elements are pretty light and clearly explained, the characters are largely relatable and the narration superb. J. Scott Bennett has the perfect voice for male anti-heros and villians, and draws you in to the emotions of the Hero Hunter. While most of the plot twists are fairly predictable, there is enough originality to keep the story fresh. The story is obviously meant to be the start to a series, but at the time of this review there is only one book in this series. Fortunately, it also works as a stand-alone book with a "life goes on, and not everything is truly resolved" ending. Recommended for fans of The Boys TV show on Amazon or the movie The Specials.

Fighting for justice as a fugitive

Darren Hultberg creates a very good story with the main character who was a hero, presumed dead by the other heroes he worked with and tried to kill him, turned fugitive by killing other heroes in the corrupt organization and becomes the hero once again. Now that's a plot. J Scott Bennett does an excellent job in narrating the story and keeping you engaged.

Awesome

Loved this book great main character can not wait till the next book in the series

Got potential

I really enjoyed the story, however it would have benefited from being about 3 hours longer. It simply felt too rushed, some of the scene changes was a little jarring and I never got the time to get to known and care for the characters the way the author obviously intended.

The narrator has a somewhat limited range, not that the characters sound the same excatly, but that is because of different dialects/accents, not because of different pitches...
Especially the women sounded rather butch

Another great book from Darren Hultberg.

The story centers around an ex hero that hunts down other caped crusaders with vicious force.

so good

a very good first book for a series I loved everything about it the story was well written and interesting and very captivating the narrator did a very good job very enjoyable book
