About this listen

Gary Karkofsky is an ordinary guy with an ordinary life living in an extraordinary world. Supervillains, heroes, and monsters are a common part of the world he inhabits. Yet, after the death of his hometown's resident superhero, he gains the amazing gift of the late champion's magical cloak. Deciding he prefers to be rich rather than good, Gary embarks on a career as Merciless: The Supervillain Without Mercy. But is he evil enough to be a villain in America's most crime-ridden city? Gary soon finds himself surrounded by a host of the worst of Falconcrest City's toughest criminals. Supported by his long-suffering wife, his ex-girlfriend turned professional henchwoman, and a has-been evil mastermind, Gary may end up being not the hero they want but the villain they need.

Interesting idea, but horribly written

This is a decent enough premise for a book, however the author writes like a sexually frustrated 14 year old boy who thinks he is much MUCH cleverer and funnier than he actually is. The image conjured up is sort of like a nerd, but without the intelligence usually associated with nerds. The kind of sexually frustrated man-boy who reads a lot of comic books but isn't actually very bright. He seems to be laughing at his own jokes throughout the book, while nobody else is laughing. It didn't help that towards the end it went off on some religious kick (he seems to have issues with his Jewish heritage as well as women). Overall a pretty painful experience. The narrator was good though.
