Memoirs of a Supervillain

By: Stuart Grosse

Narrated by: David Quimby

In a world where "human" is only the beginning, and people can become something more, some will rise above, and become superheroes. But for every hero, there must be a villain. What drives someone to become a supervillain, and take on the heroes of the world? What would the life of someone who has accepted that they are no longer part of "normal" society and devotes themselves to their own dreams and goals be like? What if a supervillain decided to write his memoirs, and speak about all these things?

This is the memoir of the Supervillain known to the world as Iceblade. It chronicles his achievements and his failures, his loves and his losses. Learn about the theft of the Mona Lisa, the subjugation of Lady Victory, and the slaughter of the Holy Order of the Word. Hear for the first time about the death of Bytegeist. All from the point of view of the man himself.

The setting is a world of superheroes and sci-fi, and our main character, who may not be the most powerful out there, but is willing to do whatever it takes to win. No matter the cost. He is not a hero. He is not an anti-hero. He is not a vigilante. He is a villain, and knows what he is. He is amoral but ethical.

Rated R: Definite language, violence, gore, sex, and all the horrible things that can happen in the world. If you have triggers, consider this your warning.

Great book!

Engaging story and solid narration!

The story of a young man who gains powers and how he copes, adjusts, and grows with them.

This is the story of an unapologetic villain - well written and narrated, but villainous.

The negative reviews have more to do with people being offended by the MC's choices than quality of writing and narration. If you can't handle villainous choices don't read a book about a villain - and don't smear it because you didn't like it. (you can tell some of them were reviews from people who don't care for the genera, but got the book for free)

This is an interesting look into the behind the scenes world of supers.


fun and well worth a credit

Voice Actor was Adequate, Story needs more tact

Voice Actor: Davids ok. just comes off like a bit cheesy more then I care for

Story: It's not a bad story, it just falls prey to 2 major flaws:

1) MC never really works for his McGuffans
2) The Rape/ Slave fantasy is in poor taste. Leave it to our imaginations, dont play out your fantasies (this is worse then the overly descriptive and sexual Bard at a D&D table)

Interesting Story, Great Narrator

"I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review."

First, the book was read by an excellent narrator, I really enjoyed his style and speaking manner. I’ll definitely look for other books he narrates.

The story was interesting, as the title suggests... it’s a memoir of a super villain. It felt like a series of short stories that didn’t always flow together perfectly; but it’s a memoir, so that makes sense. I will say that there was a NSFW section right at the end that didn’t really add anything in my opinion. Violence was present but not excessive.

good story with a few problematic issues

while this story was overall quite enjoyable, the unnecessarily graphic sex scenes in an otherwise good story were quite jarring and didn't fit the tone of the rest of the piece.

AN AWESOME BOOK & A BIT OF SEXY TIME TOO!

Totally enjoyed it! A fresh look at the making of a villain and his origin story. Also, a bit of some old trashy romance novel added in the mix was a total surprise and great!

From the other point of view

Memoirs of a Supervillain is a surprising gem. The author has written an overall well flowing story. There are a few bumps, but they in no way detract from the enjoyment.
Be warned though, this is not for kids. there are moral and adult themes that are not appropriate for a younger audience
.David Quimby does an excellent job of narration.

"Iceblade Rocks"

Great author, great narrator, great plot. Iceblade is a great character and would enjoy reading more about his exploits. This was a refreshing take on the whole superhero/supervillain storyline. I would recommend this book to anyone. Well worth the time and credit. Stuart, any more forthcoming adventures?

This book was provide at no cost for a fair and honest review.

Not really one of my favorites

I was hoping for a fun schlocky/underdog story with maybe a redemption arc like Confessions of a D-List Supervillain.

Instead this Mary Sue protagonist walks into a series of free power ups and becomes the most feared villain in the world because of how he murders the families of those who wrong him.
He also gets a ring of sexual mind control and spends the rest of the book raping and mind controlling his way to victory.

Not really my thing.

VERY INTERESTING!!!

This story tells the tale of the upcoming super villain Iceblade and his rise to prominence. I enjoyed how his journey had its ups and downs. The narrator did a great job too.

I really enjoyed this story

I received this book free in exchange for a review. I totally enjoyed this story. The main character started humble and built himself into a powerhouse. The flow of the book kept me engaged and I listened to all of the book in one sitting. I hope there is more stories to come and I recommend this story to all superhero or villain fans.
