Just not enough here
Super Sons (2017-) #1 - Chris Burnham,Dennis Culver,Peter Tomasi,Alejandro Sanchez,Jorge Jimenez

I enjoyed this, it was a fun ride, but I felt it was lacking in substance, enough so that I couldn't award it five, or even four, stars.   Also, Damian Wayne picking on Jon Kent feels a little one sided: Jon is young enough and innocent enough that I don't think he really thinks lashing out is an option in most cases.    He does, at least once, insisting that Robin couldn't beat him in a fight, but that feels more macho than anything.   When Damian picks on Jon for being a goody two shoes - like his father, and how he's been raised - it just feels mean spirited, and I think Damian knows Jon won't take that low road.  

 

So I'm not digging the partnership so far.  I am excited to see them looking into break ins at Lexcorp.   Lex himself shows up at the end, and I'm thinking that has the potential to get fun!

Reading progress update: I've read 19%.
By Any Means - Chris Culver

Good so far but it would have been nice if there was some indication it was the third book in a series on Netgalley or Goodreads.

Co siedzi w głowie detektywa
Opactwo - Chris Culver,Jan Hensel

„Opactwo” to debiutancka powieść amerykańskiego autora Chrisa Culvera. Początkowo ukazała się w formie elektronicznej i szturmem zdobyła listę „New York Timesa”, stając się bestsellerem. Czym zasłużyła sobie na to miano? Być może pierwszoosobową narracją, którą prowadzi Ash Rashid, główny bohater i detektyw pracujący nad śledztwem. Trzeba przyznać, że to ciekawa perspektywa, bez wątpienia budująca napięcie. Niektóre wątki sensacyjne pojawiające się w książce są bardzo „amerykańskie”, więc również mogły wpłynąć na pozytywny odbiór czytelników za oceanem. Ale czy polskim czytelnikom kryminałów „Opactwo” przypadnie do gustu – mam pewne wątpliwości...

Just Run - Chris Culver Just Run - Chris Culver Many reviewers will complain this book is formulaic, and it is, but what a great formula. Two good guys (male cop and female victim) are forced to flee and hide from the bad guys and authorities who have been bamboozled by the bad guys. The ultimate outcome is never in doubt, so it’s how the author gets there that keeps us reading.

Of course the idea that a researcher would have only one copy of a large important database on a laptop is preposterous,but as with all such books some suspension of rational thought is required.

Good dialog, interesting characters, fun read and cheap Kindle price.
