More Adult Superheroics

A follow-up to the original SIMON, this installment has the titular everyman escaping his captors but still in pursuit from the Green Hood. We spend more time with supporting characters like Vasia and Author this time, the Green Hood’s identity is revealed, and the book ends on a cliffhanger setting up the next volume. Overall, the second book continues the cheeky, post-modern tone of its predecessor, and the writing feels tighter and more focused this time. For American ears, again, the audiobook narrator does take some getting used to.

Great sequel!

I thorough enjoyed Simon: Superhero in Training by Lucas W. Mayberry. This second book in the series combines modern sci-fi elements with traditional legends. There are more revelations and backstory to explain what’s going on with Simon. The training scenes were a bit long winded for my tastes, but I’m not interested in martial arts. Still a lot of things hanging so I hope to see the next book soon. The narration by Steve Field was excellent. He created voices for the many characters and brought them and the story to life. I received a free audiobook code for my honest review.

New challenges & deeper layers to his abilities!

In "Simon: Superhero in Training" by Lucas W. Mayberry, narrated by the engaging Steve Field, the writing crackles with intensity as Simon faces new challenges and discovers deeper layers to his abilities. Field's narration brings each character to life with vibrant energy and clarity, enhancing the story's gripping suspense and emotional depth. Mayberry's sequel is a thrilling continuation of Simon's journey, promising an epic showdown that fantasy fans won't want to miss.

To the Moon, or Mars, and Back

Enjoyable sequel to "Simon: Not Your Average Superhero." A lot of the mystery surrounding the making of superheroes was revealed. Ends in a cliffhanger, which isn't ideal, but will be looking for the third book.
I received this book for free for an honest review.

Fun

This is a fun sequel to the first book in the series. The narrator does a great job.

Ends in a Massive Cliffhanger!!

This is something that Upsets me and many others, ending a book in a cliffhanger and not even having the next book available. There was not even a aprox date the next book would be coming out. As a New author this is a great way to LOSS anyone interested in his writing.
Because of this I Do Not Recommend this book.
Narrator does a good job with the various characters and the Entire Storyline.
