Overview:

If you like spiderman and enjoy stories about the anti hero, then you’ll enjoy this one. It’s a relatively quick read or audiobook to listen to while commuting. This is is a novelization of the MCU version of the character, and not the original comic, which was written by David Michelinie in 1992.

Here Is What The Book Was About:

Introduces you to Eddie/Venom living in San Francisco after a spat with Spiderman where the two agreed to stay out of eachother’s way. Venom is back in the city of his birth, and not looking for trouble, when it finds him instead.

Rating: (1 to 5)

3.9 based on the engaging writing style of the author, and deep progression of the main character. Would have earned a higher score if it were less action and more story. Some complain about the narrator of this audiobook being monotone; my opinion is that he was OK and the excellent writing makes up for the minor flaws of the narrator.

Other Thoughts on The Book:

Fans of Spiderman comic books and movies will enjoy this one; action packed, and filled with back story and insights on what drives the Eddie Brock / Venom symbiote character. The writing is excellent, word and phrase choices perfect, and overall story suspenseful.
