    I read your review. I will prepare to run away from this book. I grew up reading superhero comic books and have always loved the genre. But that doesn’t mean the genre doesn’t need to change (i.e., by embracing strong, believable heroines). I can halfway understand it this book was a spoof on the genre, as you hoped. But this book doesn’t sound like a parody. If that’s the case, yeah, I feel appalled.

    Wow, what a true “Oh, John Ringo, no!” type of book.
    Everytime when you think the bottom must be hit by now, someone goes to prove that there’s still a ways to fall.

    Reading the review I’m not sure what I find scarier, that somebody wrote such a… steaming pile of something, or that he actually has found a publisher for it.
