Description

Even D-list supervillains have to start somewhere.

Follow Cal Stringel's misadventures as he climbs to the lowest levels of supervillany in the prequel to the smash hit, Confessions of a D-List Supervillain. Angry that he wouldn't be known as the engineer who made Ultraweapon's force blasters, Cal resigns to chase after a bigger, better paycheck.

However, the Promethia Corporation isn't going to let him go that easily and sets out to make his life a living hell. Fed up at being pushed around by a company with an endless supply of lawyers and litigation, Cal sets out to build his own version of Ultraweapon's powered armor and take his revenge!

What Cal doesn't count on is just how hard this is going to be.

Along the way, he will make both friends and enemies and discover how hard hitting rock bottom can feel. Whether Cal is trying to smooth talk his way out of the prison for supervillains, haggle with nefarious employers over the price of his inventions, or battle with the Gulf Coast Guardians, he's in for one wild ride!

He'll need to learn that when money is tight that everything has a price - from the cost of making weapons for a psychotic speedster to how much to charge for taking the blame for a drunken rampage through Las Vegas.

Ruined by the cliffhanger ending

It is the story of how an engineer becomes a low rent super villain. The protagonist is written as a decently entertaining slacker. The other bottom feeders on the super villain food chain have sufficiently amusing and interesting super powers. The story is predictable but fun. Unfortunately the author decided not to finish the story, or finish the story and give a teaser for the next story, he just stops and expects you to buy the next book. I always find that a cheap trick and feel ripped off at the end. You pay for this book to really just get a character introduction. I am unlikely to get the next in the series just because I don't want to be ripped off and not get an entire story.

Well written and enjoyable.

Parts of it can seem drawn out especially with the narration style but the detail and back story of Cal makes you want to root for him. He's underestimated by everyone including himself but time and time again shows in spite of having no powers or unlimited resources, he learns, develops and always improves.
