About this listen
Sam Meeko never thought that he’d ever get a superpower, especially one that allows him to smell everything. Everything. With his unconventional power, Sam joins forces with a group of women hellbent on getting to the bottom of a countrywide conspiracy. It’s going to take some thinking outside the box, and when that doesn’t work, Sam and his group might need to tear the walls down.

In a world full of super powers, Felix has a pretty crappy one. He has the ability to modify any item he owns. To upgrade anything. Sounds great on paper. Almost like a video game. Except that the amount of power it takes to actually change, modify, or upgrade anything worthwhile is beyond his abilities. With that in mind, Felix settled into a normal life. A normal job. His entire world changes when the city he lives in is taken over by a super villain. Becoming a country of one city. A city state.

Henry and Jason led normal lives in Seattle before they were abducted to another world. Their kidnapper, the vain, self-styled god Dolos, refuses to send them back unless they can accomplish an impossible task. Oddly, Dolos doesn't seem to care if they succeed or not. Luckily, Henry and Jason studied Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) on Earth. Unfortunately, a Japanese American EMT and a geeky IT programmer don't have many other useful skills on a sword-and-sorcery world like Ludus.

Day in and day out, he shuts off his brain, keeps his head down, and goes about doing his job and minding his own business. That is, he does until a drunken god shows up randomly one day and whisks him off into another world, demanding that Lee serve as his pawn in a game between the gods. Now, trapped in a completely different world full of danger, magic, and creatures, Lee has to figure out how to stay alive long enough to make it back home.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Knowledge is power. That would be the motto of Lander University, had it not been snatched up and used to death by others long before the school was founded. For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop student with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes.

Leland Gaunt opens a new shop in Castle Rock called Needful Things. Anyone who enters his store finds the object of his or her lifelong dreams and desires: a prized baseball card, a healing amulet. In addition to a token payment, Gaunt requests that each person perform a little "deed", usually a seemingly innocent prank played on someone else from town. These practical jokes cascade out of control, and soon the entire town is doing battle with itself. Only Sheriff Alan Pangborn suspects that Gaunt is behind the population's increasingly violent behavior.

Our universe is ruled by physics, and faster-than-light travel is not possible - until the discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field we can access at certain points in space-time that transports us to other worlds, around other stars. Humanity flows away from Earth, into space, and in time forgets our home world and creates a new empire, the Interdependency, whose ethos requires that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war - and a system of control for the rulers of the empire.

Who in their right mind tells both his lawyer and the judge presiding over his murder trial, “F--k you!” while still in the courtroom? No one, right? Yeah, you’d be wrong about that. I did. You’d say the same thing if you were just found guilty of a murder you didn’t commit, though. Call me crazy for going off like that in court, but trust me, you don’t know crazy until you see what happened next.

Then the plague of living death spread around the globe. Despite the best efforts of the superheroes, the police, and the military, the hungry corpses rose up and overwhelmed the country. The population was decimated, heroes fell, and the city of angels was left a desolate zombie wasteland like so many others.

We were as thick as thieves, sharing every adventure. Then one day she revealed a secret. She wasn't from Earth. She was from a distant place called the Arcadia Multiverse. Her people lived under the rule of a god-like entity known as the System. That System had its gaze fixed on Earth. And it was only a matter of time before it came for us.

High School Fantasy
The performances were good along with the editing.
The story read like a high schoolers fantasy. perhaps that is the audience it was going for as I am not that age.
The background to this story is there are supers and not so supers but they have powers. The not so supers are not permitted to act as crime fighters as they cannot be licensed for such. In this world, we meet several 20 somethings, at least I hope that's the supposed age, who are either playing super or wanting to.
There is one guy and three females. All the females seem to take an interest they guy for some reason that isn't clear as he doesn't seem particularly adept at anything other than smelling, which is his superpower. He can tell the future and the past with this power. How a sense of smell can determine the future is up to your imagination.
The group is all working poor with the exception of one who is basically Bruce Wayne as a girl and who just meets some of them and decides they should all live in her mansion. There is supposed to be sexual tension between two of the females and the guy but they are so blasé about it, it doesn't work. For good measure, the third girl is also crushing on him.
Fortunately, they blunder into a kid smuggling ring that supports, no kidding, vampire ninjas. The amount dead kids found in a shipping container cannot support the amount of ninjas these wannabe heros kill at the end. It's a good thing they did too otherwise the official heros had no idea how to handle the vampire ninjas and had to be shown how to do it by these pesky kids (yes Scooby-Doo reference).
Overall, it was okay. The action at the end boosted it's score. I don't think I'll be getting anymore from this author. A book with a similar plot, different power levels and only some can be supers is Super Powereds (Years 1-4) by Drew Hayes. This had believable characters that are much more complex. Year one reads a bit high school-y but I think it's intentional as they seem to mature through the years. I have no confidence the people in this book will mature.

Very good book
Great character development, not the standard superhero story, and an interesting world. Can’t wait for the next book.

Good story but......
Good story, very good performance, but what is with the random music? The music didn’t appear to be coordinated with the story at all! And that makes it distracting as all hell. It took away from the overall enjoyment. I don’t know who’s idea it was but they should be slapped.

LOSE THE DAMN MUIC
Good story, very enjoyable and entertaining listening. However the editor chose to add COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY MUSIC over certain parts of the story, in some areas the music was so LOUD the story couldn't even be heard. Aside from that, the story is definitely worth the price of a credit.

Eh.
It was fine. The steamy scenes are not steamy, but more like a Sex Ed book. Some of the dialogue is stilted and forced. As always, Soundbooth Theater knocked it out of the park. Kept me listening. Music was awesome.

Did they actually listen to the effect of the music?
I really enjoyed this book ... except for the music. It was loud and often contrasted with the mood. The narration and voicings were delightful, and the humor was often brilliant. But the music reminded me of the old forgotten days when a cassette tape would get stuck in a car player and those songs would become the soundtrack of your life, playing over and over regardless of your desires. I hope in the sequel that they take cues from any movie, and use the music to enhance the story, rather than smother it.

Music? Really?
The story is decent. It seems written by a middle aged man with over active hormones, but it works. The performance as always was perfect. However, the music they threw in was absolutely horrible. It didn’t go along with the story line and at one point when I was driving, listening to the book, I thought I had a flat tire but it was only the music that was randomly thrown in...
